Does anyone know if Vitakraft Menu is good for them also what other packaged foods are good for them? Also how does everyone check their hamsters levels?...
I have never had a diabetic hamster, but from what I know you can buy diabetig testing strips and use thier urine to test. I don't know much else about it,...
... packaged foods are good for them? I'm afraid I'm very disappointed by their website. They think Syrians can be sold at three weeks of age. That's the...
I'm not sure what is in Vitakraft Menu. I fed Hazel Hamster with the corn and peas picked out, plus a mix of whole grains and thing shown to lower glucose ...
The last of the 5 hamsters that I rescued from a local shelter passed away quietly in his sleep last night. He was curled up in his favorite flying saucer...
I'm sorry for your loss. But you and Sebastian did really well. Diabetics frequently don't make to a second birthday, and he was almost three. In a message...
... quietly in his sleep last night. Thank you for adopting these little guys from the shelter. There are so many in shelters in need and few like you willing...
Hi, one of my winter whites just tested positive for diabetes today, so I'm busy trying to get my head around it. I'm trying to make his food safe straight...
I have never had a diabetic before, but I think you have to take out all of the peas, corn, dried fruits, and sunflower seeds. Also, don't give them carrots....
Hello everyone :) My name is Linda and I am the proud keeper of 3 wonderful hammies. Lily -the Campbells dwarf --I think she is a blue? She is solid...
Thank you for adopting your Syrian. So many people buy those little hammies just for fun and then find out they can't take care of it or they don't want it...
Thanks I am going to start giving her diabetic food. Better to be safe than sorry. I have been reading up on the basics. I couldn't believe that family...
I know, I don't think they should have bought it at all unless they were really going to take care of it. There are a lot of hamsters up for adoption an hour...
... is way to young in my opinion to be incharge of a hamster. Daisy has become a very welcome member of the family. I wish I could rescue them all. Yes....
Absolutely. I bought Lily from petsmart and the seller tried to get me to buy an edible home for her. I told him that he must not know anything about...
Yeah I am constantly checking craigslist now for any hammies that are near my area. I would rather they go with me than end up dumped or worse. Any pet is...
For all the blind and foolish harm pet stores do, please be gentle with the store clerks... it's an extremely low-paying job staffed by kids who, for the most...
Oh I didn't say any of that in a mean way I promise. I said it jokingly and I even got him to smile. He was greatful for the info, but I doubt they are going...
Kidney beans, I believe, are toxic in an uncooked state. I'm not sure about all other beans. Cooking destroys the toxin. So I would cook beans to be on the...
Yeah, I know kidney beans are toxic raw, that's sort of why I was asking. The info always says don't feed kidney beans raw and then nothing about other beans,...
Yeah I wish I could find a little independently owned mom and pop store for hamster items. The owners have owned hammies all their lives and only stock the...
This world wouldn't be such a great place if everyones dreams came true! ... From: Linda To: HoneyHams@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, March 17, 2009 7:45 PM ...
so would I, even if they asked for more! As far as I'm concerned, places like Petsmart and Petco are doing just fine withought me buying things from them all...
I'm in the UK. I've worked out that Dioralyte is the UK equivalent of Pedialyte, but I can only find a blackcurrant flavoured one, it has some saccharin in. ...
I recently adopted a diabetic dwarf hamster from Craigslist. I named her Strawberry. She's not pink, but I think she should be. :-) I read about what sort...
