Little Keefe.. Gia's Russian hamster passed away tonight.. she came running down the stairs to tell me he was not moving.. so I went up and yes.. little sweet Keefe passed... Russian hamsters live only about 2 years in the wild. Gia got him for her 5th birthday..he may have been a few months old... lately Sal and I saw changes in him... slower... poor thing went blind.. he always kept his eyes shut and just was not his normal little fur ball self..Jeej was so upset.. it was "her own" first pet. Gia was so responsible with Little Keefe... she helped clean the cage and her and Sal would order the supplies needed for him off the net.. Honestly, Little Keefe was living in a cage equivalent to the Four Seasons Hotel LOL... Gia and I had a long talk about the whole thing and God bless her she understands about Heaven because of when we lost Bosco... I wrapped him up and buried him in the backyard surrounded by a circle of rocks and a cross... Gia made this special rock to go on top... the rock is from our backyard and just happens to be in the shape of a heart... Tomorrow, it looks like it is back to Petco to get another hamster... maybe another Russian or a bigger one.. we will see.. whatever Gia wants. We loved you Little Keefe.. now you can play with Sonny, Igby, and Bosco.. run free little one... run free...
