NO, hamsters in the wild have never been known to install showers in their homes. On the serious side however. Hamsters are generally able to keep themselves clean and groomed and need only be washed in emergencies when they get particularly dirty or are in need of treatment for mites or something like that.

∙ 13y agoYour not supposed to give them a bath, but you can if they are extremely dirty. Only use a tiny amount of water, not even an inch. Some hamsters like it and some don't. Kind of like with dogs. I would not recommend giving a dwarf hamster, or one of a similar size, a bath though. To keep their coat extra clean (which they are pretty efficient at themselves, actually) brush them with a small toothbrush.
