Hamster died of old age, commission

May I take a better picture later...

I really wish I had gotten my sugar glider preserved... she looked just like that all curled up when she died, I died holding her so... I dunno, she died of an unknown cause, she had an organ fail or something. She was the result of Pocket Pet breedings and was probably inbred, and if anyone is reading this and wanting one, please don't buy from them, I rescued her from her old owner who bought one on impulse and didn't know how to care for her. It only brought be heartbreak though, because I bonded with her and then she passed away when she was very young. I was not expecting it...

Aww, the poor thing, it looks so soft though.

Is Taxidermy hard to do?

=DiePest-1912 Jun 23, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Yes, very hard.

It seems like it, I don't think I could ever do it. But how long did it take for this hamster?

=DiePest-1912 Jun 23, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

About a week with tanning and removing the fat from the hide

This is interesting-I have no problem with taxidermy at all and I'm sure this is good work (wouldn't know, I don't know anything about it) but at first I was like "what the".... o.O Didn't know people this this. lol But good work all the same!
