Hi! This website - http://www.rabbitadoption.org/diabetic.html - lists parsley among the food to be avoided for diabetic hamsters. Why? Bye, Cameron...
No Parsley??? That isn't on ANY of my listings of prohibited food for hamsters. Moreover, what does parsley have to do with diabetes? While on the topic of...
Especially since peanuts are in most commercially prepared hamster food - even Harry Hamster! I didn't realize celery was bad for them. I'm just glad my guys...
Yes, this was cited as the main reason for prohibiting celery, an action with which I heartily agree. I can't stand the stuff and primarily for that very ...
I think the problem is with raw peauts. You want to dry roasted unsalted ones. And a diabetic hamster on a low fat diet should very seldom, if ever, be given a...
Hi! ... That's what I hoped to find out... My diabetic Campbell Trip got a wooden tunnel stuffed with dried parsley and millet, and I'd love to give it to him....
Hi! ... I've googled a bit. Parsley is diuretic - that sounds like a good reason not to feed diabetics parsley. Diabetics usualy do not need help to produce...
Hi Everyone, Just FYI, i thought i'd pass on the following Craigslist posting (published today) that i just came across for 2 dwarf hamsters needing homes in...
I was also looking for a vet in the LA area, and got the following two recommendations from this group. I ended up going to Dr. Debbie Oliver, and she was...
I have taken my girl to the vet and he had no insight as to what is wrong with her. She seems to have fluid building up in her abdomen and is about three...
If this were a human, I would suspect the ascites (the fluid) due to liver failure. How old is the hamster? Could the vet get a blood sample to check for this?...
She is fifteen months old, and her little brother just passed away. He was diabetic, but I don't believe she is, or the other sister. As far as the vet, he...
Is it normal for a 7 month old diabetic drawf hammy to lose hair? My DaVinci is bald at his ruff now. It's been like that for 4 days now. He does not...
I think that my hamster is diabetic...and I'm not quite sure where to start. She is a hairless syrian that I've had for just over a year. I give her the...
I am anxious for you to get a reply or two on this. My Sally is old and she has lost hair underneath her. She acts like she is OK, though not as active as she...
... nutritional yeast (from the health food store) sprinkled over her food every other day. I have been doing that. I'm afraid I'm not sure that I know enough...

Hi! ... I've talked to our vet on Saturday and asked her whether diabetic hamsters are allowed to eat parsley. She said no, because parsley is diuretic. Bye, ...

How about cucumbers or peppers? A couple of mine are absolutely addicted to bell peppers (although they won't eat the skin-- we end up with sad little scraps...
Thanks, Linda. I did check that out. The place I read about it also said that cod liver oil would help too, but I chose to go with the nutritional yeast. I...
Hi All, A curious thing happened to one of my male dwarf hamsters a few weeks ago--one day i did a double-take when it seemed like his hind legs were a lot...
Well...I finally got a hold of some urine sticks and tested my hamster. She was totally negative for glucose, but she was positive for protein. Hopefully...
