I was so glad to find this group about diabetic hammies. Sadly, I recently lost one of my dwarf hamsters (Taffy) to cancer at 6 months old (after having spent...

Hello everyone! As a follow up to my "new member" post yesterday, I wanted to report that since changing the food to what you all recommend, my little girls...
Hi all, My little Trixie lost some weight, which I originally thought may have been related to her diabetes. But watching closer I noticed that one of her...
While not all vets specialize in exotics, they *do* have certain knowledge of them. (They're doctors after all lol). Things such as nail trimming, teeth...
Be careful to go to a vet that is familiar with these little ones. The vet I USED to use almost killed my hamster last winter by cutting something other than...

We all know Syrian hamsters should be kept one to a cage. Stores still haven't figured that out. They get a shipment of baby hamsters, plop them in a cage, and...
my hamster has that same problem. The top teeth are gone and won't be growing back so every two weeks I take Sylvester to the vet to have the teeth trimmed. I ...
About 2 weeks ago, I checked out the hammies in a Meijer store (like a K-Mart). They had 10 male hammies (Syrian) in one little compartment. Well, 8 of the...
It isn't a sexual thing, it's a dominance thing. The older male was establishing his dominance. Our PetsMart and Petco are both quite nice, although the...
I have a Syrian male right now that needs his teeth trimmed regularly. I did it again last week. I just check periodically and do it when they seem to need...
Are the nail clippers you use 'human' toenail clippers or are they small, like cat, nail clippers? ... regularly. I did ... seem to ... him to do ... over. I...
Thanks for replying! I was wondering about that...are there gay hammies or what?! The dominance thing makes sense. Anyway, little Randy got a good home out...
Is there a similar avenue for PetCo complaints? I also 'rescued' Trixie from a PetCo..besides being diabetic and grumpy, both of her ears have (healed) tears,...
Thanks for the reply! I was wondering about the older male hammies???? Well, anyway, Randy got a good home out of the whole thing and I got a really cute...
I have fenugreek in capsule form, with the powder inside. I did a very rough estimate of how much to give based on a PubMed article but I'm wondering what...
it really is bothering me. Friday I am going to have my gas dryer repaired. It's in the laundry room on the first floor, not in the basement. My hammies are...

We've always used the big toenail clippers, though there are metal grates that some vets use to file them down, as well as "specialized" clippers. There's just...
They are shipped in overcrowded, hot enclosures with no bedding, food, or water. I sometimes help out at our PetsMart. The other day there were six dead and...
OMG!!! That's terrible!!!! And you even found dead ones with the shipment???!!! Who is the breeder/supplier? I don't want to know their name, but is this...
They were shipped from a big commercial breeder somewhere in Texas. I live in Louisiana so normally, while the trip isn't very nice it isn't completely...

I also have no sympathy for PetSmart at this point. The 17 Syrians that were housed together really gave me the creeps. When I first saw them most were lying...
