For those of you who don’t follow me on Twitter or Facebook, last week I sadly announced the death of my dear little friend Bill.

Though I realize that most people find it strange I even owned a hamster, he was just like any pet and incredibly special to me. With that, I’ve included some of Bill’s debut internet videos below:

Please enjoy this extremely captivating, National Geographic-worthy :60 documentary of my hamster Bill, who was clearly very thirsty last week.

Shortly after making this video, Bill was admitted to the small pet hospital and put under anesthesia to remove a tumor on his…bum. Needless to say, Bill has been through a lot in the past five days (3 hospital trips, icky tasting medicine, surgical glue!), so he’s a little under the weather… but he wants you all to know that he appreciates your well-wishes and get well cards :-)
