Re: Death In the family!!!!!

I don't know if they hibernate or not Slinky.... I don't think they do but I'm not a hamster expert... If you think he's dead then he probably is. At least if you leave him there until Saturday......you'll know one way or the other..

Re: Death In the family!!!!!

Sometimes hamsters do appear dead but are actually alive. Even poking them doesn't wake them. Put your fingers on its belly to see if theres a pulse.

Re: Death In the family!!!!!

my ex once thought her hamster was dead and her brother put it in the oven and after a few seconds it came tro life

turns out it was hibernating so yes it can take a lot to wake them up

the above story may not be true though as it has been since found that my ex is full of sh1t so its hard to know truth from fiction lol

if it feels cold and is rock hard like a stone then rigamortise has set in and its dead

ps:

do not put in oven as i never did find out what gas mark setting was used or how long it was cooking for lol

You could try saying he was playing on the PC and enjoyed his time with mouse so much that he decided to move to this site!! He can look ater him and visit him there!!!


After all your worrying and sensitivity he'll probably say something like... "DERRRRRRRRRR MUM HE'S DEAD..........GET OVER IT!!"

Re: Death In the family!!!!!

Years ago, my daughter's turn to bring the hamster home from school. One morning my wife came upstairs Telling me quietly the Cat had got the hamster.
Urgent action required, hamster put into it's nest box with just a little showing. When my daughter got up over to feed boris, my wife said for her to leave it alone as it seemed to be hibernating.
Wife takes daughter out visiting so that I can take the corpse to the local pet shop & try to get a substitute. Boris had been white with brown patches
so getting a perfect match chances next to nil.
Fortunately the pet shop had a hamster but different pattern & much smaller, it will have to do.
Daughter comes home over to cage, What's happened to Boris? What do you mean I asked innocently, His patches have moved & he's alot smaller (it's a good job hamsters aren't very big or she might have noticed he has also changed sex!).
Well, said I sometimes when hamsters hibernate they shed their skin which can make them seem smaller & the new skin changes colour. She was happy with that, went out to play.
The following Monday my wife takes boris back to
school and explains in confidence to teacher, teacher says boris was an old hamster & when he died they weren't going to replace him so we shouldn't have bothered.
