Today has been a very tough day. I woke up to find our hamster "Precious" had passed away during the night. My son made this hamster out of punches about a year ago (he was 6-years old at the time). It looks a lot like her (the colors). I thought it was so cute. I held onto it, so I could use it in a scrapbook once I had time to put a page together. She was the sweetest pet and we had her for almost 2 years. We will surely miss her.

ohhhhh, this is so cute, but I'm so sad! I grew up having hamsters, and I know how attached you can get to those little guys. Lots of hugs for you and your son, and thanks for sharing the cute little punch hammy!

Ahh, it brings back memories of our dear stinky little Tedd! The little hamster my son lovingly took care of! He lived 3 years! My son even made a leash for Tedd! Tell you son he did a wonderful job on this this card and that I am very sorry for his loss. It's hard to loose a beloved pet.

Having owned a hamster as a child I know the feeling of losing one.... This little guy is adorable and a great tribure!

What a great hamster! I am so sorry for your loss. I fear our hamster will soon be joining yours...
