Avatar m tn the next morning the boy saw one of the dwarf hamsters trapped or hiding under the broken apart cage, she was wounded. she has a gash on her back. the other dwarf hamster came out three days later. she was the lucky one, no wounds of any sort, just dehydrated. we googled hamster wound and it said to use fish oil to treat it. my girlfriends aunt had some vitamin pills or something, that consist of fish oil. should we continue using them?

Avatar n tn I just got a Dwarf Hamster from Petland 3 for 4 days ago. I just noticed that my hamster has some kind of growth on her back leg. It is the same color as her skin and it doesn't seem to bother her much. I was just wondering if you think it might be a tumor? Should I take her to a vet?
Avatar m tn Would the smell of the hamster upset the cats? Would the smell of the cats upset the hamster? Can I safely have a hamster in a house with cats? Thanks!!!
Avatar n tn My hamster has a lump either in the back right of her cheeks or in her inner ear... i think it is the ear as her right ear looks as though it is pasted down over the lump, but she wont be still long enough for me to take a look and i dont want to hurt her... mainly my question is: Is there any way i can give her some tylenol or some other pain medication? She keeps squeaking as though she is in pain and i dont want her to hurt.
Avatar n tn My hamster was fine about 12 hours ago. I came home from work to find her laying in the bottom of her cage. She has little to no movement and looks as if she hasn't eaten in days. I tried to give the hamster about 4 drops of water in two hours and she barely drink it. What should I do. The hamster doesn't apper to have wet tail.
393165 tn?1420760445 Hi, this is a general question please. My daughters siberian hamster just died, and through the grief she asked us to buy her another one, so off to the petstore we went and bought a male russian dwarf hamster age about 6 months old.
Avatar f tn I am trying to lead a normal life but unfortunately my irrational worries have raised their ugly heads again. My five year old daughter wanted a pet hamster, she chose one from the pet store. The store worker took the cage away and put the hamster in a cardboard box for us to take home. She did this out the back of the store so we didn't see her placing the hamster in the box - she was quite a long time out back.
Avatar m tn have you tried bentadryl? it's good to help with sleeping, also hylands restful leg will help with your restless leg syndrome. Sorry I don't have any advise on the sweating, someone had said you can buy otc detox tea that might help but I am not sure on that. contgrats 4 days clean you are almost there. keep posting.
Avatar n tn Anyhow, your daughters hamster probably had an early stage of this disease when purchased. I would go to the store with the hamster and request that the hamster be evaluated by the store vet. If that is not possible (if the pet store declines) than request a refund and surrender the hamster to the store.
5946774 tn?1389187935 I've had a hamster for about almost 4 months and my 4 year old was very good with him. Occasionally he would pick him up the wrong way or hold him too tight but nothing alarming. I was gonna shower really quick and as always I put my hamster away so my son couldn't get him since he has a tendency of letting him loose in the house.
Avatar n tn Well today was me n my boyfriend 7th year anniversary and my first cousin got engaged wit his boyfriend of a year. The only thing I got was a mexican dinner and a tease of gettin me a pet hamster which I really really wanted but he didn't have enough money.....am I bein a ***** for bein mad at him???
4601190 tn?1357338863 HAHA that could be bad! My daughter is a bit older, but we do have the animals already... 2 dogs, cat, 2 rats, and some fish. Hubby doesn't take care of them since they are mine (before we got together) so I am sure with a newborn and a couple cages and litter boxes this could be interesting. I'd say try a rat before hamster if they don't bother you, or a guinea pig if you're considering it. Good luck!
Avatar m tn I was in a half cast, basically on the back of my leg and below the foot for a touch over a week, so I was unable to move my ankle and leg and was on crutches. Then 2 days ago I went to the outpatients department and the doc took the cast off me and told me to start walking on it with the aid of crutches as it isn't the weight bearing bone. He said that the bone will heal by itself without the cast and even with me putting a bit of pressure on it.
6470732 tn?1439556292 So I'm 19 weeks today! Last night I was just laying there on my left side. Up to now I've felt fidgeting, like a hamster was in there, as far as baby movement goes. Like someone was tapping their fingers inside my uterus. But last night I was totally taken off guard! I was laying there and I just shifted my top leg like and inch to get comfy, and then suddenly it felt this HUGE thump. I mean my immediate reaction was "WOAH" and grabbing the area. It didn't hurt.
605439 tn?1220120190 The hamster zona-free ovum test (HZFO test), or hamster test is a method for diagnosing male infertility due to the inability of the sperm to penetrate the ova. This test has limited value for most people experiencing infertility. In this test, sperm are incubated with several hamster eggs that have had the outer membranes removed. After seven to twenty hours, the number of sperm penetrations per egg is measured.
Avatar n tn Our hamster passed away on 11 25 11. We assumed he died of old age. However, after taking photos of him before we buried him. I noticed that his private part was partially black. He did not appear to have wet tail. As a matter of fact he looked pretty good for a 2 year, 5 mo and 4 day hamster. His hair was so soft, no patches, teeth in good condition. No bumps or lumps. But his private part was black in the picture. So, if you have any idea what that could have been. Perhaps, just decomposition?
Avatar m tn First, it is essential to know that what unusual symptoms you are facing after broken screw. It may be possible that broken screw can impinge nerve and lead to some neurological symptoms. Please consult to a neurologist for a detailed approach. Hope this helps.

My son killed my hamster yesterday I took him to talk to someone today in the morning and she says from what he says he isn't mentally disturbed and it was just an experiment and she's had a lot of cases like this. I got my hamster at the beginnin of my pregnancy when my husband had deployed I became super attached to him and I'm feeling like a big part of me is missinh right now.
535822 tn?1443976780 well thats sounds like an interesting house guest for you Margy....Tweety may be fine with the hamster, however he is a C A T and if it were me I would sure supervise them whenever the hamster is out of his cage..afterall hamsters do resemble a big mouse....
Avatar n tn My hamster Elvis, has a lump that keeps popping out of his right testicle. It doesn't hurt him when i touch it, he's eating and active as he normally would be. the lump is the same colour as his testicles. I was thinking, could it be one of his testicles moving into the other side so he has two in sack, as to say.
Avatar f tn My hamster who is 3 years old is acting weird. And I think she is showing signs of wet tail please help. One weird thing is that she will sleep upstairs and her bedding is downstairs! I have tried placing her near her bedding but it only worked once. Would the kindest thing to do be to have her put to sleep? She has not been drinking but has been drinking please help. ASAP!
Avatar f tn pregnancy of hamster, turning 2 months only, having bluish belly some says she might experience abortion is it true?
Avatar n tn Licking a hamster, especially a Chinese hamster, may not be a bad idea. They were instrumental in the identification, experimentation and delveopment of interferons. "The interferon system has been investigated in primary cell cultures established from Chinese hamster embryos and new born pups" Everyone kiss a hamster today !
