Goodbye Cyrus boy…

Cyrus had left us last night. His departure was a quick and quiet one. He was taken away 12 hours after the initial symptoms were shown. we did our best to save him. his breathings were short and slow, and eventually stopped. his eyes weren’t closed entirely. He was in pain i guess, but hadn’t have the energy to struggle anymore. so he put on the pair of wings and flew to heaven, enjoying the carefree and happy life up there. Now, he is a happy and pain free Cyrus, and is able to eat, drink and run the wheel as much as he likes. Thank you for being with us for a year and 7 days. We will always remember u with love.

Hammies

THE HAMMIES UNITE!

hello everybody!

we’re the 张 家 将! harmoniously we live in the big glass bungalow, watching the door each and everyday, running the wheels to keep ourselves in tip top physical condition (and also to pass time lar), biting the dividers to sharpen our incisors and, sometimes, shifting our furnitures and creating noises to ask for attention hehe~

i’m da jie da, xiao ham~! *sitting on my bum bum*

heylo, i’m xiaohei, be careful, i bite.

oink, we’re the newcomers and we’re about 1 month old. mama says we look like pig…
really, oink? o(｀ω´*)o

xiaoham: ahhh~ life is good with a cold juicy of carrot~ ahhh

xiaohei: though i’m small, i bite. (#｀皿´) cyrus and cyrene live beside me. they’re so noisy.

Cyrus and Cyrene

First of all, wish all u people a Happy 2007! 2006 is filled with so many things happening. and Saddam’s hanging marks the end of 2006 significantly, isn’t it? but hen, there’s bombing in Bangkok on the 31st, which killed some people and scared the hell outta the others. damned the bombers – whichever organization that you belong, i wish you a happy soon-to-come death anniversary.

we’re having 2 new family members in our Zhang family!!! let’s welcome Cyrus and Cyrene!!! 2 lovely syrian hamsters which my bro brought home. they’re soooo cute and furry! they’re only 3 weeks old and their faces look so ‘yu ki’ (direct translation from hokkien: young teeth). they’re very VERY energetic. it’s a hard time catching them, and after catching them in my hands, they will just ‘pop’ and jump anywhere~ they are here for about 3 days and they’re doing quite well in adapting to their new lovely home. i have been talking and ’sa-yanging’ them a lot so that they can get use to my beautiful voice and the human touch quicly. sleeping most of the time, running on the wheel (they’re so strong and can run continuously for quite some time!) and fighting and screaming at each other. so cute! especially when they yawn!
