GOODBYE TICKLES




Our little Hampster who has lived in the house nearly as long as we have was squeezed to death by a little munchkin last week. Our petting zoo of 11 pets has slowly dwindled down to our one little wiener dog. NO more FISHES, NO more FROGS, NO more LIZARDS! There was a time when Tanner seriously wanted to sell tickets to his petting zoo.

This is our little tribute to our friend Tickles. He was a great pet. Seriously the cutest hampster ever. He came in second at a petsmart hampster derby. Good thing there were only two hampsters that showed up for the race! But he won some awesome prizes. We named him Tickles because when he ran across the kids backs it tickled. A great low maintenance pet he only had to be fed about once every 3 weeks. I admired his dedication to exercise, he spent hours every night running around on his little wheel. I wonder if the boys will have a hard time sleeping without the squeaky wheel!

WE LOVE YOU TICKLES!

WHAT happened to all the other little animals? I could handle a fish. I would be to scared to have a hamster it resembles a mouse too much. Sorry that it died that way. Your kids are probably sad:(
