It is hard, and

unfortunately, it doesn't get easier to help your children deal with losses.  Sounds like he is a secure little guy, though, that trusts his parents, and that can make all the difference.

We had hamsters quite a while back, no problems.  I do remember from raising parakeets, that the ones that are hand-tamed as babies are the most people friendly.  Maybe there is something similar to hamsters; i.e., the way they are treated as infants. Just a thought.  Good luck.
