Hi! I’ve been extremely tired this week and nearly forgot that I was hosting one so I’m writing this last minute! I couldn’t think of anything so I’m going to write about one of my hamsters who is not Biggs; Meredith

Meredith was another hamster of mine from a few years ago during the early days of COVID, and she was the absolute sweetest little creature I had ever met. Very friendly, very gentle. She loved exploring anywhere I put her into and never bit me okay she did once ever. She was an absolute sweetheart and bundle of love and was with me during some of the rougher parts of my life

She unfortunately died very suddenly out of the blue one day at a terribly young age showing no symptoms of anything wrong with her prior, which breaks my heart to this very day

I never had her as long as any other hamster of mine but I don’t think I had any other hamster touch my heart in quite the same way. I miss you, girl

    Grow your hair out (the hairclip idea is good for now!) then when it’s time for a hair cut later, you can ask for framing hair! It’s cut intentionally a little shorter so that when you put your hair up you get the cute little side hairs.

    Also you have to cut every few months or so, you gotta trim off split ends

      Seconding the framing hair. It’s especially nice if you can get it at like, cheek length where it covers a bit of your face since it can round out the look and make you appear more femme. It’s what my trans hairstylist recommended to me and I love how it looks.
