so this weekend I noticed him not sleeping under his bedding and kinda out in the open. thought that was odd but figured maybe he just wants to change spots. but he was out from his usual burrowed spot a second day and 3rd day. today I noticed his breathing was really weird and heavy. so my sister kinda moved him to a couple places but he just laid around. normally he gets feisty when you try to pick him up but he didn't do anything. I tried to give him a strawberry treat but he didn't take it like normal. so we started to pet him and he kinds tried eating the strawberry but it just stayed in his mouth. he had no energy to even blink really. so I just knew he was dying. hamsters live like 2-3 years and he was coming up to 2.5 years. I just hated seeing him breathing like that and just not feeling good. so my sister and I put him in a box with lots of bedding so he could feel safe. I covered him a bit because he was cold. I pet him for like 20 mins and told him I love him and that he was a good boy. I checked on him again and he had died. so I covered him with soft bedding and tomorrow my bf said we can bury him in the backyard. I prefer burying him there cause he owns his house. I don't live at mine permanently so I don't wanna bury any animals here. :( I love you Chintzy.
