I was wondering if anyone would like two Gerbels. I have tried everything, but my cat just won't leave there cage alone. I have three hamsters and the dar...
Hello all, I think Herbie's possessed (joking). I love her, but she is driving me nuts!!! All she does awake now is chew on bars,...
Thanks so much everyone, on help with the bugs on my animals fur. I used the Vaseline method (thanks scottish_lass) and it worked! They have completely...
Can you convert her to maybe a tank? That would definitely stop the chewing. What type of hammie do you have? Maybe someone you know has an empty tank that you...
Hi all, The problem is that I can't lift a tank, especially to wash it, one that would be big enough to count for a tank. Herbie is currently...
Oh this sounds so familar. My last (and first ever) hamster did the same thing once she figured out that it got to me and I would spend time with her and let...

I need some advice for taking care of an elderly hamster. cake is getting old. if you saw her album you might have noticed how thin her fur was. she's blind...
Hi all. Maybe you can help me. Last Friday our Minnie had babies. Yes, hubby and I are Grandparents now. I need to clean the cage but what is the best way to...
You really don't want to disturb the babies for the first couple of weeks. You can probably do a spot clean of the more dirty areas, but if you move or touch...
Hi Diana One of our hammies, Bailey, is like Cake. He is now just over 2 years and 8 months old and finding some things a bit of a struggle. I can see in him...
Hello all, Thanks for the advice. I've let Herbie out of her cage every day now for two hours, it seems to have cut down on the chewing a lot, she...
Hi Tina. Thanks. Ya, don't want that for sure. Maybe what I can do is just get the majority of the bedding out somehow and leave the babies in there but move...
Is the father in the same cage as the mommy and babies? If so, the mommy will probably get pregnant again right away. It should be safe to remove the adults,...
Yes he is. That's what I was thinking of doing is just move them out of the cage enough to get most of the old litter out and leave them alone. I will have to...
if u get a tank u solve your problem but not hers. it's like putting tape on a hungry baby's crying mouth. also please do not use that stuff for fingernails. u...
for sure get dad out ASAP. u will be lucky if she's not pregnant again. if u dont have another cage just use a rubbermaid tote as this is an emergency...
Deron sent this to me....we are off grid, I want him to make one of these up (you know? In all his spare time) for a night light for the bathroom. LOL Marna...
My daughter found 4 baby hamsters in her cage yesterday (Monday June 2nd). We do not know when exactly they were born. They all were alive, and still are....
You shouldn't touch the babies for the first two weeks. After that, you should be able to start handling them. So I take it that the two hamsters you got,...
Hello all, I spoke too soon, I had her out tonight, and now she spent most of her time chewing on the ball trying to find a way out! I put her...
u can try your local humane society or put an ad at local vets. she sounds very unhappy & most are not like that. is she eating & drinking normal? are her...
http://www.petwebsite.com/hamsters/rearing_syrian_babies.htm http://hamsterific.com/RaisingPups.cfm these should answer your questions. right now u dont have...
I agree...to an extent. I wouldn't recommend she get a lizard. I have a Bearded Dragon and he takes more of my time than all of my other pets (3 dogs, 1...
I wouldn't recommend the guinea pig cage just because Herbie probably can fit through the bars. Most of those cages have bars that are about 1/2 inch apart,...
i handle mine more than 1 month, i clean the cage 1 week after birth with a spoon that i rub to the mommy first and put some of the soiled beddings...
hi sarah, bailey sounds sweet. i'm sorry to hear he's getting old too. cake is to the point now where she won't even go to the bathroom in her little corner...
