![]() ![]() I think you are doing what you need to by placing it in a quiet place and trying to get it to drink. The best thing to do is to make your pet comfortable during these times. Even with the best care, hamsters still get old and sick. Two years old is getting towards the average lifespan of a hamster and I know it’s sad to see these things happen. I know, a vet can be expensive and you can’t always find one that will give you a deal based on how small your little pet is. I’m sorry to hear about your sick hamster. I have no idea what it is, how it happened, or what to do. For now, I have just tried to make my room dark and quiet. I saw her drink, and eat, and she seems to be walking fine. I am going to try and bring her to a vet on Monday (2 days from now). She has been sitting in the food bowl for hours, grooming herself and eating (by grooming I mean, like hands in her mouth kind of grooming, sitting up), real shaky. Her eyes were like smaller or something and I can tell, she’s just… off. She (sick/injured one) just didn’t look well in general. ![]() I washed my hands well and moved my other hamster to a spare cage (she was without a scratch) also, there was some blood on the food bowl. I also noticed that she had a small sore/bloody (I don’t really know) area near the middle of her tail. I couldn’t get a very good look because she (is always hyper and kept squirming out of my hand, but that is her normal personality and also) nipped/bit me when I got too close to it (whatever it is). there is a white thingy that looks like a bone or a parasite or something. Her bottom area was wet and missing hair and all red and sore-like kind of. ![]() I got home today and took my Chinese (dwarf) hamster out of her cage and I instantly knew something was NOT RIGHT. ![]()
