Hamsters

Sorry to hear about your piggy:( It depends on the symptoms. Mine sneezed, and a few days later I noticed he hadn't finished nearly as much water that day as he usually did. He ended up having pneumonia and despite the use of antibiotics and my force feeding him water every hour, he died. He was only two years old. My vet explained it to me like this: Guinea pigs are happy creatures. They do not want to worry you, so they pretend they are not sick until it's too late. By the time they can't fake it anymore, it's too late to do anything to help them. If you have any other piggies, watch their food and water intake. If either suddenly decline, don't wait---go to the vet ASAP! Every minute counts. From what I understand, birds are the same way.

You CANNOT give Dwarf Hamsters a bath. It can cause respiratory problems, and because of how small they are, they can die from them. What you CAN do though, is buy special Rodent Sand from a pet store. They love to dig and play in it, plus, you can get sand that smells good, if the reason you want to give your Dwarf Hamster a bath is because it smells bad (I know mine does). Make sure you get the SAND not the DUST.

Yes, guinea pigs can eat alfalfa hay, but it should only be given in small amounts as it is high in calcium and protein. It is best to offer a mix of different types of hay such as timothy hay, orchard grass, or meadow hay as the main part of their diet for proper nutrition.

It is not recommended to house dwarf hamsters with guinea pigs. They have different social structures and dietary needs, and may not get along well together. Additionally, guinea pigs are larger than dwarf hamsters and could potentially harm them unintentionally.

Hamsters with a black body and white feet are typically referred to as Black Bear hamsters. They are a popular color variation in the hamster breeding community and are known for their striking appearance.

Your hamster may be experiencing an ear infection or an issue with their balance system. It is recommended to take your hamster to a veterinarian who specializes in exotic pets for a proper diagnosis and treatment. Early intervention is important to prevent further complications.

Hamsters drink very little water compared to other rodents. They are also often stealthily quiet about it, so you often won't hear the familiar tap-tap of the water bottle, as in other small pets. The reason they are drawn to the water on your skin is because the salts in your skin have released into the water, and they are drawn to this. If you honestly believe that your hamster is not drinking water from it's water bottle, check to make sure that it is able to get water from it, and if not, invest in a new one.

They should have food and water available to them at all times. You can look up what types of veggies and fruits to feed them and how often, but the water and pellets just always keep them filled. Check the pellets daily to see if they need to be re-filled and change the water daily. Hope this helped you.

Technically yes cause A hamsters a rodent and so is a guinea pig. But A guinea pig is a lot larger then a hamster but if you had a guinea pig and a hamster I suggest you not to put them together.

Female hamsters typically go into heat every four days, with each cycle lasting around 12 hours. Signs that a female hamster is in heat include increased activity, scent marking, and a more receptive attitude towards male hamsters.

They sleep very often. If you see your Rabbit sitting their with a blank look on its face it may be sleeping. They do not have to have their eyes closed to sleep. They can sleep with there eyes opened. They also can sleep with their eyes closed (Sounds like my kids)

Panda hamsters are primarily herbivores and their diet consists of seeds, grains, and fruits. They typically do not eat earthworms as they are not a part of their natural diet. It is best to provide them with a balanced commercial hamster food along with fresh vegetables and fruits.

Yes, guinea pigs can make good pets. They are social and friendly animals that enjoy human interaction. They require a proper diet, spacious housing, and regular veterinary care to ensure their well-being.

Give your mouse a change of beding two days like Monday and Thursday.

When you scratch a female dog above her tail, it can sometimes lead to a reflexive response that causes her to stick out her tongue. This behavior could be a result of pleasure or excitement from the scratching sensation, triggering a physiological response such as sticking out the tongue or panting. It's a natural reaction and nothing to be concerned about.

A pregnant dwarf hamster may exhibit symptoms such as weight gain, nesting behavior, and a swollen abdomen. The gestation period for dwarf hamsters is typically around 18-21 days, so the babies are likely to arrive within that timeframe. It is important to monitor the mother closely during this time to ensure a safe and comfortable birthing experience.

It's very difficult if not impossible to sex tadpoles and very young frogs. The most reliable indicator of a frog's sex is that males call for mates but females do not. However this means that you often can't tell at all until the frogs reach sexual maturity.

Of course you can always dissect the tadpole and look at it under a microscope but if you want it for breeding it kind of defeats the purpose.

Not necessarily. Hamsters can have disagreements or establish hierarchy within their social structure. Sleeping together can indicate that they are comfortable in each other's presence and have accepted each other. It's important to monitor their interactions to ensure they are not causing harm to each other.

All hamsters have the same amount of baby hamsters (pups). They usually have 2-8 pups per litter. Usually, you will only get 6 or 7. On rare occasions, you could get 10 pups!

Yes, guinea pigs can eat cantaloupe. It is a safe and healthy treat for them, but should be given in moderation due to its high sugar content. Remove the seeds and rind before offering it to your guinea pig.

Why don't you try the ASPCA/SPCA? They sometimes get small rodents like this who need homes. Or you could look in your local paper. BETTER YET: Contact Karen at This Little Piggy and Me, guinea pig rescue in Forest Park, Ohio (website below). But beware, they will not release piggies to any pet stores or for testing or to feed to other animals. You must fill out a questionnaire and sign a contract--just like an SPCA adoption. But if you want a great friend (or two) their piggies are healthy and happy! http://www.thislittlepiggyandme.com
