No most spices are harmful to hamsters, so I wouldn't advise it. Have you tried fenugreek seeds? They would be a better choice. About 20 seeds per day at most....
I have been giving her the right diet, and offering her Fennugreek seeds, and also made the tea, but she still pees excessively. I have to change her sand dish...
The fenugreek didn't work for my lad either. I didn't know what else to do. Swapped his diet for bird seeds like someone suggested, but that just seemed to...
She's pretty active in the middle of the night, running in her wheel and chewing, digging. But in the daytime, when I put my hand in the bin to change her food...
Mine does that too.... meanwhile she will get up on my hand and eat seeds and treats from it without a problem. and she totally waits for me when I get home to...
Hey! What kind of hamsters do you two have anyway?! I've have so many hamsters in my life that I've lost count and not a single one ever did that to me....
The female I was talking about is an adorable little robo. Very skittish. I got her from a friend who didn't really have the time to give her much attention,...
Yeah, my lad was evil. Haha. Hopefully, if she is diabetic, the level of activity will keep her on a good level. Other than that, just keep trying and make...
Did you try the Glipizide treatment? Did your hamster get diabetes when young (type 1) or later in life (possibly type 2)? Glipizide is for human type 2...
My sweetheart is a Campbell dwarf. My vet said glipizide doesn't work. She is a type 2 diabetic, at 7 months old. Does the Combur 5 test have another name in...
In the US you can buy Bayer Keto-Diastix to test glucose and ketones, I think the only test that's available for a bladder infection would be AZO tests strips,...
I got the test strips for sugar, infection and ketones. She is showing only high ketones. The infection and sugar are registering negative. What does this...
It means that your hamster is breaking down muscle mass for energy, since her body is not able to provide it through the proper absorption of glucose. Start...
Hi all. I've just tested my 4.5 month old Campbell [hybrid] boy who has a family history of diabetes (his older sister)--but then of course Campbells are...
I'm not an expert. But I do think the result sounds odd, but not necessarily indicative of diabetes In a message dated 3/25/2012 10:45:38 A.M. Mountain...
Didn't mean to send that soon... I do think testing again with fresh strips is a good idea. You sound very diligent in your testing and your diet. You're...
Thank you! I got a fresh container of strips a bit ago and will test my boy when he's awake again. Â I tried testing his brother in the meantime, but after 35...
I have re-tested the boy who had confusing results using new sticks and I'm happy to say the Ketone level was between Negative and Trace. Â Normally my hams'...
My memory isn't what it used to be, so I didn't mention it before. I do think ketones are from metabolizing fat or protein. I wouldn't be too worried about...
hi, i can't seem to find any info about diabetic dwarfs chewing their cage bars. my little girls are seriously spoiled - they have a ginormous home, lots of...
It doesn't directly affect diabetics, but here is an article by the list owner that may give you some ideas to try. http://www.chahamsters.org/qandachew.html ...

Use Apple Spray from a pet store. It so awful, they would never chew again :) ... From: baconsmama87 <tamarack87@...> Subject: [HoneyHams] biting cage...
I've come to the conclusion that my male russian dwarf hamster, Shaggy who is 6 months old has the onset of diabetes. He is really thin. What sort of diet can...
Weight loss can be caused by many things other than diabetes, such as stress, poor kidney function, poor diet, and any number of other causes. Â Have you...
It is extremely important to read labels on any food you buy him. Sugar, which needs to be eliminated immediately, comes under many names. Honey and molasses...
