How can I get over the death of my hamster?

my hamster(blanca) just died last aug 22,2011 because she got stuck on a glue trap. because im young and doesnt think of the things i do, i mercy-killed her thinking there was no way she’s going to live after this. so after i buried her in our garden, i took a bath and went straight to her tomb to mourn for her. after maybe 10 minutes, i went straight to my computer and researched if there was a way to remove that sticky glue out of her, when i saw the only way was peanut butter and lukewarm water, i went to my mom and cried to her. two days have past and i still cant get over her,mostly because of guilt. and now i just feel plain stupid and cruel. what could i do? im only 13… i dont know what to do….

Answer #1

Death is the ultimate end to everything. People die, pets die, plants die, countries die, ideas die, computers die, the electricity dies, and everything else dies. Death is a natural part of everything’s existence, and while it is kinda depressing, what is much more important to focus on is the goodness brought by those things while they were here.

My hamster died of wet-tail, very common. I felt sad, but I never did cry. He was a cool hamster, and you know, I loved him. But you feel like you could of still had your hamster now that you know there was a way to help it. But you didn’t know, and besides that, you did cared enough to helop the hamster with which way you thought…. you didn’t do anything wrong, and I’m sure your hamster would forgive you.

buy a robo hamster, it will never die and if it does then just buy new batteries ;-)

Answer #8

What’s a wet tail? I’m very curious…what if it happens to mine

Answer #9

You made a mistake. You should have researched it before you took action but like I said you made a mistake, I understand that you will feel guilty. All you can do is learn from it, I’ve lost pets in the past, including three hamsters. It is sad and I did cry but you will feel better with time. Hug
