and so the beautiful CoCo leaves us ….

There’s serious sadness in our house this evening as the beautiful CoCo has breathed her last.  Our gorgeous hamster CoCo who has rather remarkably survived 3 years in our house finally gave up the ghost today and shuffled off her mortal hamster coil to the big hamster heaven that we all know is out there.  We will all miss her terribly and will be holding a small memorial service in our garden tomorrow morning.  As my daughters have just said we will remember her most for her beautiful colour, nibbling fingers and using her cage as a set of monkey bars in her endeavours to escape.  We loved you lots CoCo – Laurax
