Rest in peace, Pearly

Rest in peace, Pearly (3rd November 2023 to 13th December 2025), you were the least friendly of the three hamsters we brought home back in 2023, but you were definitely the biggest in size, and probably appetite.

We named you Fury initially, because, well, you sure had a temper, and you would use your size to get advantage over your two sisters. But the elder son didn't liked that, and he renamed you Pearly, and we sticked to that.

You were very good at finding all those buried treats, gotta hand you that. Your two sisters looked dumb and slow in comparison, often needing me to lead them to the hidden treats. Not you though, you found them all by yourself, and in very short amount of time, then you would hide...

Sorry that despite the mighty effort 'mommi' put in for your skin problem, it persisted to plague you these last few months. No worries, we will always remember your nice white fur.

Wished you were friendlier and interacted more with us, instead of always hiding and shying away.

Hope you have enjoyed your time with us, now go meet your sister Brownie in hamster heaven.
