Jeri - I have certainly appreciated Stinky Butt's commentary on this thread.

All - Sweetie was a lively, friendly, very likeable hamster, and will be missed, but Hesperis seems to be handling it well now that the crisis has passed. I will find a peaceful spot in the forest for Sweetie, who is now having the biggest Out-Of-Cage experience of them all.

She was a great hamster.
