It really depends on YOUR hamster. It can be allergic to its food, bedding or even the house hold items in your house. But not every hamster has allergy's.
Infected
Probably.
no, as only cat solliva contains the paticular paraite that many of our bodies are immune to. I am allergic to cats, yet I can breed hamsters with no allergic reactions. I have been breeding rodents for over 10 years and have only had a reaction with possoms.
Pine bedding can increase respiratory problems in hamsters.
no
you would probably sneeze or itch!.
grapes
No. Platypuses are carnivores, and will only eat certain foods, but they are not "allergic" to any foods.
you would be allergic to anything with nuts in it
Hamsters eat fruits and vegetables.
No, hamsters aren't hypoallergenic. Their fur doesn't shed much, but if you're allergic to them you shouldn't get one. I have a pet hamster, and when my mom holds him she gets a rash because she's allergic to him.
It honestly depends on what the kids are allergic too. They can be allergic to cats, but not to hamsters. It would be best to let them play with some hamsters at the store or a friends house, and make sure they don't have a reaction.
