A Tribute to Chmurka

One of our very favorite hams has passed away today. The beloved Chmurka. Let's all grab paws, stuff our cheeks to the HILT and thank the Lo' we got a chance to know the little fluffball. [Bagpipe music starts blaring]

Yes, one hamster can make the world a better place, especially when her peeps dress her up in adorable outfits and photograph her. We'll miss you, little ball of fluff.: debg; | Jun 23, 2008 at 03:28 PM

I love all of Pyza's Hamster family. They are so adorable and make me smile every time I see their pictures. Chmurka will be sorely missed by myself and all those who have appreciated the window into her hamster life which she has shared with us.: Paul M; | Jun 23, 2008 at 03:31 PM

BAAAROOOO!!! Chmurka helped to decrease my fear of rodents. Farewell little caramel colored angel.: harlemgrrl; | Jun 23, 2008 at 03:32 PM

Aww, sad news. :( Sleep in peace, sweetie!: AuntieMame; | Jun 23, 2008 at 03:41 PM

Chmurka, tell Tator Tot mommy loves her and misses her, I think you two will be great friends in ham-heaven.: Lesley; | Jun 23, 2008 at 03:52 PM

Chmurka was a true superstar hammie. She will be sadly missed.: Jennifer; | Jun 23, 2008 at 03:53 PM

dear god. first tim russert, then both george carlin and dody goodman today, and now Chmurka, too?! (i won't even bring up the kiwi animation.) I can't take much more of this! :sob:: Aesthetica; | Jun 23, 2008 at 03:55 PM

Wow. Too close to home. My two-year-old hamster came very close to dying last week when he got wet tail. His bottom got infected and swollen. I thought I was going to lose him. I took him to the vet, and he seems to be getting better, but he still looks really bad.: nismo; | Jun 23, 2008 at 03:56 PM

Chmurka, tell Tator Tot mommy loves her and misses her, I think you two will be great friends in ham-heaven.: Lesley; | Jun 23, 2008 at 03:58 PM

Our deepest condolences to the loved ones of Chmurka. Rest in softness, little one!: jmuhj; | Jun 23, 2008 at 04:00 PM

condolences to chmurka's family. what a sweet hammie. so glad we got to meet her on CO.: jen; | Jun 23, 2008 at 04:12 PM

I'll pour one out for the cute little mofo tonight.: Dexter Fishmore; | Jun 23, 2008 at 04:30 PM

Awww, such nibblable little footpads. Sweet rest, hamham.: Balamuthia; | Jun 23, 2008 at 04:32 PM

my condolences to Chmurka's family. She was a good hamster who brought much joy into this world.: browngrl; | Jun 23, 2008 at 04:38 PM

Many virtual hugs to Chmurka's loved ones. That's the hardest part of loving fur people, we outlive so many of them. But they bring us so much joy that it's worth it.: Ann M; | Jun 23, 2008 at 04:46 PM

I think that Chmurka is now in Happy Hammy Heaven where all hammies run freely amongst the sunflower seeds, peanut butter treats & strawberries that are just the right size. Chmurka, please say hello to Bebitte and Belvedere Blue for me. Tell them I miss them *sigh*: BBM; | Jun 23, 2008 at 04:46 PM

In Japanese, a hamster with such coloring is referred to as a キンクマ（金熊）。(kinkuma) This cute picture of little Chmurka reminds me very sadly of my own lost little kinkuma, Strawberry. I hope Strawberry and Chmurka can become friends in that great, big Habitrail in the sky. :,(: dave; | Jun 23, 2008 at 04:53 PM

RIP little guy, hope you are happy over the rainbow bridge. You'll be missed.: Beth; | Jun 23, 2008 at 04:58 PM

May your wee muzzlepowsche rest in peace. *sneefle*. Everything I know about hamsters I've learned from Chmurka and Lucy.: holleep; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:02 PM

my sincerest condolences to chmurka's family- thank you for being kind enough to share her awesome-ness with the rest of the world. she brought all of us so much pleasure. goodbye chmurka.: temperance; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:10 PM

A hug to Chmurka's loved ones - she was a lovely hammie, and provided many hours of sweet joy to all who knew her, even if afar through the 'net. They are so small, yet the house feels so empty when they are gone...: MadameX; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:12 PM

My cats send soothing purrs to Chmurka's family. She will be greatly missed.: Theresa; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:13 PM

Noooooooooooo! Chmurka, we hardly knew ye! (Blowing kisses to heavenly muzzlepowsche): SixFootJen; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:16 PM

I'm sorry.: Czanek; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:18 PM

Chanpon, grief is the price of love. :(: Theresa; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:18 PM

My condolences to Chmurka's family. She was a lovely girl.: Susan; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:37 PM

I'm sorry to hear about Chmurka.: Rachel Sweeden; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:38 PM

I just went and read her flicker page about Chmurka's passing on. I don't understand why I'm letting tears fall for a hamster I never met, but it's so hard loosing pets and I can't help but identify with Pyza's loss. Sleep well Little Cloud. Sleep well.: CHelsea; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:40 PM

i wonder if it died from being too fat? :-( Hey guys, I just got a new little guinea pig! Please visit my site www.bunnykitten.com to see pictures of her and help me come up with a good name!: jnet; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:47 PM

Aww, battling cancer? Yikes. My deepest condolences go out to Chmurka's family. Rest peacefully in Hammie Heaven! Her pictures are so sweet, resting peacefully amidst some flowers. Even if I didn't really know her, I am glad that she got a chance to positively impact many people with her life :): Annie J; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:52 PM

Sweet Chmurka passed? I'm so sad... *sniff* :(: Ann W.; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:56 PM

Oh noes! First my aunt's boxer, Sadie, died Saturday, then George Carlin last night, and now Chmurka?! I'm trying really, really hard not to cry right now. ;.;: Vicki; | Jun 23, 2008 at 05:57 PM

So sad...it's so heartbreaking that our little pocket pets are only with us for a few years. I'm sure little Chmurka is feasting on tofu up there in hammie heaven.: binky-mama; | Jun 23, 2008 at 06:07 PM

Oh I am SO sorry to read this!! My sincere condolences to little Chmurka's family. Hammies JUST don't live long enough. I've spent lots of time looking through her photostream. I'm so sorry for your loss!: tubbysnuggles; | Jun 23, 2008 at 06:10 PM

jnet :( :( :( :( :( :(: Ermine_Violin; | Jun 23, 2008 at 06:12 PM

I loved Chmurka, even when tiny ears fell off.. Hugs to all who know size truly doesn't matter when it comes to those we love...: Daphne Moss; | Jun 23, 2008 at 06:16 PM

I fell in love with Chmurka when I saw her "Barbie shoes" pic. http://www.flickr.com/photos/chmurka/2393462110/in/set-72157594387292641/ Who could resist her? I spent several hours looking at her fab pics just last week. I can hardly believe she's gone. What a lovely, gentle soul she was. Pyza, I'm so sorry :(: DejaMew; | Jun 23, 2008 at 06:27 PM

Such a huge amount of sweetness and love stuffed into such a furry little friend. She will be missed!: CaroL; | Jun 23, 2008 at 06:27 PM

Somewhere in hamster heaven Chmurka is surrounded by mountains of tofu.: hotchka; | Jun 23, 2008 at 06:36 PM

I'm very sad about Chmurka. She brought a little bit of joy into all of our lives and I will miss her! Thanks for sharing her with us.: Jessica; | Jun 23, 2008 at 06:37 PM

Not to be a 'nuffer here, but as cute as that pic is, don't you think a more touching tribute could be attained if same said pic didn't also look so...I dunno...pornographic? :D RIP Chmurka!!! Keep Mr. Carlin company for us!: Juniper Jupiter; | Jun 23, 2008 at 07:06 PM
