Sweetie xxx

[Catherine]

I have done that kind of thing. I have rushed home to care for a pet and then remembered that he was already gone.
Caregiving gets to be a habit and it is hard to break.

Putting the cage away helps. I am glad your son is handling it well.
Good thing you had something to distract your daughter with.

We are all going to miss stories about Sweetie. She was one special hamster.
