Basically, dropping your hamster
Your hamster may be limping if it was climbing the cage and fell and then hurt itself. Or they could have an infection. Or they could be faking it which is VERY unlikely. My hamster started limping when it got a sugerpuff stuck to its leg, my mum thought its leg had fallen off!
its too fat.
A fall of this type can result in problems anywhere from the neck to the tailbone. Discs, muscles, ligaments or back bones can be affected and also damage to the spinal cord which could cause paralysis.
um it could but it could be difficult.it depends on how balanced it is.
TAKE HIM/HER TO THE VET!!!! Your hamster could have a broken leg or damaged her/his back.
No. Guinea pigs can not run in a hamster wheel or ball. They will most likely just sit there confused. Unlike hamsters, Guinea's back bone aren't all that flexible, so it shouldn't be put under the pressure to bend, therefore it would be a good idea not to let them in a Hamster ball or a hamster wheel, because it could cause spine problems. But it is perfectly fine for a hamster. Your welcome!
Temporarily Paralyzing SomeonePlaces exist on the body called pressure points. Pressure points can be used to cause temporary paralysis, but it can also result in permanent paralysis or death. If anyone wants to attempt to use pressure points to cause temporary paralysis, proper training is necessary. Even with proper training, there is no guarantee that permanent paralysis or death will not result from this method.
If they have a back/spinal injury, do not try to move the victim because it may cause paralysis. If you must move them, only use a backboard or leave it to professionals.
No. The father will eat the babies and could impregnate her again once she has her litter. Back-to-back pregnancies cause stress and can kill a mother and her unborn litter or she may eat her current litter due to stress.
Mites could have gotten into the food. Mites can cause hair loss to hamsters and other small rodents. Also, it could have been old age. Hamsters will live 1-3 years. If you have a 2 or 3 year old hamster, it could loose hair. Especially the males.
If you dropped a hamster on its back it would go into shock.
Your hamster is eathier pregnant or haveing a blood clot that needs to be fixed right away!
