Texas Rustlers Small Animal Rescue

My Sweet Teddy Bear Hamster, Bugsy, Passed away Monday while laying on my chest. This is in his honor. There are no words to express what he meant to me. He lived to 37 months approximately, and yet, it was still not long enough.

In memory of Daisy, a winter white Russian dwarf hamster we adopted from Texas Rustlers (she was named Jessie at the shelter, but we gave her a new name after a pretty flower), who passed away after a 3-year-long life, two exciting years of which were with us and in her hamster palace of toys and tunnels.

Memorial for Wasabi, Ginger, and Kate. For three of the most beautiful, happiest, and sweetest piggies anyone could ask for. You were loved by everyone from our 120lb Weimeriener, Mr. Daddy, and everyone else who met to. You are sorely missed. You left this world much too soon, through no fault of your own, rather, the greed of humans. I hope you all felt the love we had for you. You taught us the smallest heart is capable of joy, love and happiness.. Always in our hearts….and we’l continue to fight for your brothers and sisters so they can avoid suffering.

In memory of beloved James. Please use this gift for whichever piggy has the greatest needs. Thank you.

“Timmy had the BEST spirit!  He had probable disk issues in his back, and his whole hind end was twisted under and around. The pain must have been excruciating (even with his regular pain meds). We liked his distinguished white moustache, and he always had a great attitude for everyone, even on his worst days, when we would lay him on a soft towel and pet his head for a long time to comfort him.  This guy was a great joy, and our time fostering him was humbling and a blessing.  We all miss him terribly!”

Your work at the Rescue is so important and has made a lasting impression on my heart. Thank you again for everything.”

“Sam was the best piggy ever and we really wanted him to pay tribute to him. I hope that Sam can help other piggies. I think he would really like to donate lots of lettuce and bell peppers to your piggies.”
