Farewell Horatio

This is a sad day because our beloved hamster Horatio has passed away. The organic food did not make him immortal and he died suddenly of a heart attack. The Ranter buried him in the communal garden by our flat. I made a cross to place by his grave – although I don’t really believe he was a Christian hamster (being Syrian afterall). We shall miss Horatio’s reassuringly grumpy presence and have very fond memories of our first pet together.

RIP Horatio
