There are special kinds of hamster and small animal shampoo/conditioner you can usually find at pet stores. I found mine at PetSmart for a pretty reasonable price. Just for some extra information, try to use warm water (not too hot, but not cold), and also as soon as you are done washing the hamster, put it in a warm towel to dry. Also, if you put a blow dryer on a LOW, COOL setting, you might be able to speed up the drying process by blowing air on the hamster through the towel. Hope I could help!

You don't. It is very aware of it's hygene and will groom itself. If you wash it, it might die because the natural oils on its body will be washed away. And that is the good thing about hamsters. ;) P.S. If you have a long haired hamster, you will need to have a hamster brush to groom it. That's why if you are a first-timer, you shouldn't purchase a long-haired one for the sake of less work (XD) Actually, what u need to do is buy special spray stuff (cant remember name :-) and use the spray on the hamster, and the cage. Here is a note from my hamster: (put her on keyboard) hizrhpprrrh0k\\affbruyntnt9bwggg,,E^9zykd66-dhenih f6p. Give it up to hammy the female hamster! PS. Visit lakewoodchristiangift center.com :-)

you don't clean them they clean themselves. After you carry one they consider themselves dirty so they lick their paws and clean their faces.
