conv: I've got a pet hamster that hasn't been doing well. I'm scared that he might not live much longer. I have an adorable hamster that doesn't look like he's doing well. He is on the old side for hamsters_comma_ and I'm worried he won't live much longer. Oh no_comma_ I am sorry to hear that. I hope that he gets to feeling better. How old is he? Thank you_comma_ me too! He's a little over 2 years old. I'd hate to lose him_comma_ but they usually don't live more than 2-3 years. Oh I see_comma_ I can understand your concern. Perhaps he will live longer than most hamsters!
