How do you take care of a badly injured hamster that has been in a cats mouth?

Your hamster could be suffering in terrible pain so please take it to your vet. If you don't feel you can afford a vet then go to the Animal Shelter or work it off by sweeping floors and cleaning cages. GET THAT HAMSTER INTO THE VETS NOW!!!


Should you have a hamster or a gerbil?

It depends what you are looking for. If you want something that is fun to watch and doesn't really like to be held much then a gerbil might be a better option. If you want something that you can hold and play with for long periods of time but doesn't do much all day then you might want a hamster. I have three gerbils. So if you have any more questions please ask me on my message board. Yea the guy before wrote this and I have two gerbils and I had one hamster, the one hamster I had was mean as ever and it would bite me the second I tried to catch it and my two gerbils NEVER bite me (it says in almost all pet books that Gerbils RARELY bite) and to me gerbils seem much more intelligent than a hamster, I mean my last hamster would lay on its back at times and soil itself when my gerbils are very clean and there always cleaning themselves, so personally I'd go with the gerbil because the gerbil's seem as smart as my golden retriever dog as the hamster... well not so much


Dwarf hamster and im pretty sure she is pregnant will the babies go between the bars on the hamster cage?

The gaps between most hamster cages are too small to let even new-born hamsters to escape through.


When you first get your hamster do you need to feed it when you go home?

You should just put water in the water bottle and food in the food bowl. If your hamster is hungry, he/she will just go and eat it. Most times, your hamster won't be hungry because pet stores supply food in their cages.


My hamster had babies and now is losing fur and bleeding from it's earwhat do i do?

Please go to the vet's with your hamster and get her checked out.


How could you tell what kind of hamster you have?

Gerbils' heads are not shaped the same as hamsters, nor are their legs. If you look at several pictures of gerbils and then several pictures of hamsters, it should be pretty obvious which you have. There are plenty of pictures of gerbils at www.agsgerbils.org, the official American Gerbil Society website. Gerbils are also more inclined to sit up on the hind legs and "thump". They do this to signal to other gerbils when something of interest is going on.


Can gerbils go in a hamster's wheel?

They can, but make sure it is one with a solid running surface, not one with 'bars', if that makes sense. The gerbil's tail can become trapped and damaged in those.


How long can a hamster spend without fresh food i am looking to go away for a few days and i am not sure how my hamster will do help?

Hamsters store food in their cages, which means they can go for a few days without food. As long as you aren't away for more than 6-7 days, your hamster should be fine. If you give him/her a bit of extra food before you go, you won't need to worry!


How can you get your female hamster to like your male hamster?

wait for it to go into heat or try having separate cages close by each other so they can become used to each other otherwise throwing 2 hamsters in a cage that are unfamiliar with each other could result in a fight


Do rats go through hamster tunnels?
