Maybe she has a cold or the flu (influenza) it is quite common in mice, seek advice from your vet on ways to treat her, but try to keep her warm, maybe a blanket over the cage at nights and keep her away from drafts....
it means that it is sick
Nothing. Hamsters always clean and itch themselves. They just have a tendency to do that, my hamster does that. Hope I helped =)
The tail has got an infection. Tell the vet and he may prescribe an antibiotic for the infection.
If your hamster keeps falling on to one side there could be a varitey of things wrong with her, right know my hamster is dying, she is losing massive amounts of blood from her bottom and can't stand up, the loss of blood id making her week and she also keeps falling on her side, but she is old, shes 2, another thing that could be wrong if she is a young hamster is that she cold have something broken in her, I suggest taking her to see a vet. Well best luck to you hamster, I hope it turns out better than mine.
Yes, you should. Unless you want your cage to be smelt of death. I left my dead baby hamster for a a few hours to allow the mother and her other babies to feed on the dead baby --- this gives proteins, nutrients and energy to the Mama hamster and keeps her healthy and nourished so that she can feed her babies with enough milk. After that, I removed the dead baby hamster. If you can not tolerate the gruesomeness of it, I suggest you remove it before the guts spill. But, it's good to give the mother more nutrients. (: Hope this helps!

Maybe it has a cold. Its very possible your mouse has a respiratory infection you should take him to a pocket pet vet and get him checked right away.
SYRIAN HAMSTERS SHOULD NOT BE KEPT TOGETHER
Go to a local vet hospital and just tell them your concerned and they will let you know.
No. This is a question you need to ask the doctor.
It means that they are trying to mate ( trying to have sex ) to make a baby
If it is a female, she could be going into season.

Well how long have you had it? Maybe: 1. You need to play/train with your hamster some more. 2. Or it maybe just doesn't like you.
Either get rid of the hamster or put it in another room. You don't say what kind of dog it is, but it's probably the dogs natural reaction to want to kill the hamster.
yes but if your hamster keeps doing that and you notice something different please bring her to the vet immediately. by estherbella
Put a piece of un-hazardous plastic covered with cloth on both sides on all the possible escape-routes for your hamster. Tape the clothed plastic so that the hamster cannot get stuck on it, and also cannot get out.
