Hamsters

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!

the signs are runny waste and not wanting to eat or drink.They can get diarrhea because of incorrect diet or a sudden change in food. It has been in combination with draughts or dampness in their sleeping area.Other causes include rotten food,dirty drinking water, or feeding the hamster too much vegetables.Seperate the hamster that has diarrhea from the healthy ones if you have more than 1 hamster.diarrhea is often fatal for hamsters but not if caught at an early stage.If you notice any signs of diarrhea there is stuff to treat it.you can treat the diarrhea by only feeding it dry bread,rice cakes,and crisp bread and replacing its normal water with lukewarm camomile tea.It is also a good idea to change its nesting and toilet area twice a day and when you notice the hamster starting to get better,disinfect its cage thoroghly.Things you can do to reduce the chances of you rhamster(s) include:removing any old and/or rotten from its cage and renewing its drinking water everyday or so

if it is a black hamster then the signs are grey or white hairs. another sign is sadly lumps on body or aka cancer. if this is the case dont make it suffer and have it put down by your veternarian. also the lifespan of a hamster is 2-3 years. your lucky if a hamster lives to 3 although i once knew on that lived to four. look up how to tell how old your hamster is on google. by the way whats your hamsters name and what kind is it???

Most common cleaning materials like Clorox or Mr. Clean. If you use them DO NOT hold your hamster for at least 3 hours after washing your hands.

Not really because first it would have to be tamed so that it could easily be held without it biting or trying to escape, and hamsters are nocturnal so they are not meant to be woken in the daytime, so if they are woken in the daytime this could lead to stress. They are also not meant to be handled by young children, because you have to be very gentle with them, so if it is with children then i would choose something else. rabbits and guineapigs would be good classroom pets because they are easily tamed and literaly harmless, though they need more space and are more messy!! hope i helped!! if you have any other questions then please feel free to send me a message! x

normally by the time a hampster is 1 in human years they are around 30 in hampster years. they normally live to 2 and a half years old but with special care abd lots of love you can get them to 4 human years old which is 120 hampster years.

A black spot near a hamster's private area could indicate a skin condition or injury. It's best to have a veterinarian examine the spot to determine the cause and recommend appropriate treatment. Observing any changes in the spot's size, color, or appearance can also help monitor your hamster's health.

It is possible that your hamster is experiencing pain or discomfort in his hind legs, which is causing him to drag them instead of walking normally. It is important to take him to a veterinarian as soon as possible to determine the cause of his behavior and provide appropriate treatment. In the meantime, make sure his cage is equipped with soft bedding and that he has easy access to food and water.

Hamsters are typically not known for their jumping abilities. They are more adept at climbing, digging, and running on their exercise wheels. However, some hamsters may exhibit some degree of jumping behavior, particularly when exploring their environment or trying to navigate obstacles.

Yes, hamsters are crepuscular creatures, meaning they are more active during dawn and dusk. However, they do spend a significant amount of time sleeping during the day and night, with an average sleep time of around 14-16 hours per day.

Gladiator fighting was a form of entertainment in ancient Rome where armed combatants known as gladiators would fight in arenas for the amusement of spectators. Gladiators were typically slaves, prisoners of war, or criminals trained to fight in organized matches that often ended in death or severe injury. These fights were a popular form of entertainment in Roman society for centuries.

It is generally recommended to keep roborovski hamsters in pairs or small groups of the same sex to prevent fighting. However, the cage should be large enough to accommodate the number of hamsters and provide separate spaces for each hamster to sleep, eat, and exercise. A good rule of thumb is 10 gallons of space per hamster.

I have a teddy bear hamster and he is such a sweetie!!! I personally would say teddy bears are very nice and could easily be the nicest ones!!!

I had a few dwarf hamster, and even though sometimes they can be a little snippy, they are usually pretty nice.

It's possible that your hamster could be pregnant if she is exhibiting behavior changes such as sleeping more, increased appetite, and increased activity level. Look for signs of pregnancy such as weight gain, nesting behavior, and visible nipples. It's best to consult with a vet to confirm if your hamster is pregnant and discuss proper care.

It is not recommended to put a rat and mouse together unless done so from a very very young age.

Female Mice and Rats can store sperm,and therefore give birth at a later date without presence of a male.

A rat has more chromosomes then a mouse. There are also protective layers over the animals egg that protects it from being fertilized by another species.

A rat and a mouse will not cross breed.

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.

Grasshoppers, especially baby grasshoppers eat plants that they can digest easily, like clover or grass. Grasshoppers do not eat other insects, they only eat plants.

DDT gets into animal tissue and remains there, building up over time. It typically gets into the animal from the things that the animal eats. With very young animals, the DDT get from the mother to the pup after the pup is born by passing through the mother's milk and into the pup.

Put the cage on the floor and leave it open. Put a few treats in each room of your house. Then check on it everyday. At night listen for noices. We had 3 of our hamsters get out and they all came back. I just let it go and they showed up. My hamster got out a few weeks ago and i couldn't put the cage on the floor because there was another hamster in the cage. But i found her about 4 days later behind my frige.
