Sonic The Hamster
Growing up I went through a few hamsters, despite my best efforts to care for them they would usually die prematurely. I discovered Sonic cold and stiff lying at the bottom of his cage, seeing how distraught I was my brother tried to convince me he was just hibernating, to the point where I think he started to believe it himself. After I went to bed he took Sonic down to my Dad who examined him before declaring

"No. It's fucked."

Then he threw him on the fire.

That's almost as sensitive as goldfish down the toilet.

Hamsters do not hibernate as such
but go through a similar state when the temparture drops, sorry to give you the bad news but he may well have been alive. We used to see our hamsters dormant in the cage and then tip whisky onto our finger tips and stick it under their nose. I dread to think the amount of hamsters that have been buried alive. I guess a fire is probably a better way to go....
