Hammie

Born: Super Bowl Sunday, 2004
Died: March 7th, 2005

Hammie is survived by his parents Olivia and Matmos, brother Rastapigg, sister Chocolate, and Grandmother Desdemona. The smallest one of his litter, he was the spitting image of the basement patriarch Hamlet - the original cavy. Hammie was plagued by recurring colds and respiratory problems, and grew more than accustomed to fighting off the oral syringe of Baytril. He was a sweet, gentle piggie that loved oranges, parsley, kale, and the crunchy orange carrot bits in his pelleted food.

He was much-loved, and will be greatly missed.
