The point for this post is to start several (hopefully) interesting threads of weird hamster death stories because apparently these things never die naturally?

    The average hamster lifespan in captivity is usually only something like 1-2 years, this guy lived for like 4.

    He was in rough shape towards the end, his fur was falling out, he’d pretty much set up camp in one corner of his cage and rarely left.

    Eventually my mom decided to take him to have him put down. I strongly suspect that we may be the only people to ever request that at the local SPCA
