No, because the nails are so small and if you cut them too short, they will bleed. If you seriously need to do it, if you want you can try filing them or just go to a vet or pet store where they can do it for you

If they are really long you should go to the vet so they can do it for you. You could seriously harm your hasmter if you do it yourself.

What length do hamsters nails have to be cut at?

Usually a hamster will not need its claws cutting. It is defiantly advisable to take the hamster to the vets if you think they need cutting. When they are cut they should be cut just above where the pink of the hamsters skin ends. This should defiantly not be done with out the correct equipment as it can be very painful for the hamster if he is cut down to his skin. The claw is too long if it curls round.
