Best Answer

Hamsters are pretty robust little creatures, and very few foods afect them, although the following can cause illness:

Cucumber [diarrea]


Chocolate and and anything with sugar [ sickness]


Unpipped fruits and vegetables [if you don't remove seeds or pips your hamster may choke]


Peanut butter [ although you can give it to your rodents, I advise you to mix it with water to stop it from sticking to the insides of your hamster's food pouches]


Safe treats:


Shreddies with a very thin layer of peanut butter spread


Cheerios


Seedless fruit and veg


yogurt drops


unshelled peanuts [your hamster will have a field day trying to get the shell off and it'll strengthen it's teeth]


leftover chicken, sausage or bacon [ hamsters are obnivores and surprisingly love meat! But give in small portions]


Hope this helps!!!!!! Have fun with your hamster!!!
