Crazy Pie [RIP]
We brought this sweet girl hamster home with us on July 12, 2005, along with her friend Pitey. Her name was inspired by a dish at a local Japanese restaurant (something with seafood), and her crazy amount of energy. Even on her first day home with us, she was very excited about playing with us.
Unfortunately, we didn't know that she was pregnant, most likely by her brother, due to the pet store's negligence. She gave birth to 4 babies on July 16, 2005, but didn't seem to know how to take care of them at first. She eventually did, but none of them survived, probably due to a genetic disorder.
She didn't seem bothered by the loss of her babies, and so we tried to play with her often to get her in a normal routine. She liked to run very fast around the living room, and she also liked to run in her ball.
As she got older, Crazy Pie liked running loose around the living room best, and even had a few favorite spots to hang out. She would often go inside our TV console and just sit in there for a bit, then continue running around after that.
Crazy Pie died on April 18, 2007, after developing some digestive problems that were not easily treatable. We miss her sweet-natured hamster presence dearly.
