Our sweet PeeWee the hamster is not well. The girls have noticed a funny growth coming from one of his ears a few weeks ago. It is changing, even from when I looked at it a couple of days ago. He is also seeming sluggish. Don't know if the heat is bothering him or it is something else.
We were given PeeWee a bit over a year ago and *think* he will be two this fall. The average life span of a hamster is two to three years if memory serves me right. I pray that he is not nearing his end of life. I know the girls would be very sad.
So, I'm looking for a reasonably priced vet to take a look at PeeWee and get an opinion. PetSmart has vet clinics and there are two near us. One isn't open on Wednesday and the other doesn't have a "hamster vet tech" until Friday. Guess we will pray that the one that is closed today can see him tomorrow.
Tomorrow could be interesting, Bible Study, Mercedes dental appointment and PeeWee at the Vet???

My girls had such a hard time when their guinea pig died. It got pneumonia after we moved to KY. I hope and will pray that their little friend will make it through just fine.
Hope all of your busy times are coming to an end. I know what it is like to have crazy school years!! I am continually learning to guard my time and schedule.
Have a great weekend!

((((HUGS))))) We will be praying for PeeWee and your girls. We just returned from an unplanned trip to visit my MIL in the hospital. Wow...long drive with 5 children...but we did it and we are home safe now.
Please update when you can.
Still praying for PeeWee and your girls. I hope that the hamster was okay over the weekend.
