Tschuß Juwellen

Juwellen likes to lie down and have her food. Like this.

She does that for breakfast, lunch and dinner – lest for broccoli treats.

I used to think that’s real cute. Now I wish I didn’t think so.

Yesterday night, I was preparing to go to bed and had to take the hammies into the room. So I moved Creamer and Juwellen together, and then i noticed Juwellen was lying down flat on her tummy. I did as I always did, just blow on her. She had a bad habit of sleeping very soundly – and I could never tell if she was ok. So I always blow on her.

I saw she was still breathing, but she didn’t turn around like she usually did. So I picked her up and saw that she had some difficulty breathing. I lay her on her back and she did these little ‘kof kof kof’ noises. She moved her little hand and tried to push some of the seeds out of her mouth.

I realized she was having something stuck in her throat or cheek sacs. So I tried to help her. give her a little water – which she drank – and tried to help her loosen up her cheek sacs. I even tapped her back a bit in hopes of getting her to cough out whatever was in her throat. But it all didn’t work. She was still coughing with every breath.

I took her out and put her in my palm with a little piece of tissue. She kinda wagged her tail abit. I dunno whether she was happy or just uncomfortable. I’ve tried putting her on her side and on her back, but nothing helped. And eventually, she gave a little stretch, like a little yawn, brought her little hands up above her head and all the way down.

And then she stopped moving.

Juwellen must be having loads of fun with her sister Bijoux and friend Hamtaro now. At least I got to hold her~
