Maple was our first hamster and joined us in June 2020. He started the love of hamsters and we honestly could not have asked for more with him! He was tame and friendly right from day one, such a cuddle bug and he loved his humans (especially his small humans). We also learnt so much from him he shocked us on day 1 when my daughter put her hand in to put food down and he climbed right onto it! He got so used to having the small humans home schooling during lockdown that he would come out at the same time every day to watch my oldest do her online classes! He made a fair few appearences on the webcam When she returned to school he would still wake up at that time and look for her (he had to settle for big humans instead ). Everyone who ever met maple would comment on how friendly and tame he was He grew frail as he aged but nothing some pain relief for his arthritis couldnt help- he was back on his wheel within a week of seeing the vet after we noticed him slowing down and using his wheel less. Sadly just a couple of weeks later in march 2022 he went to bed one night and simply never woke up it was an absolute pleasure to be his mum and I'm so grateful to have had him spend his life with us. While charmander helped to fill the hole he left each will forever hold their places in my heart
