Re: Hamster illness, maybe you can help.
Hi hun,
Firstly please separate your hamsters. Hamsters are not sociable animals and should not be housed together.
As far as your sick hamster is concerned...you really need to visit the vet...it will only be about £15, but i think it is a pet owners responsibility to take care of any animal they own.
Your hamster is obviously suffering so it is highly unfair. Have you looked into your hamsters fur for mites? One hamster may be badly affected while another is not. I had 3 mice in a cage together and it was only on one of the mice that I noticed scabs and scratching. The others had mites in the fur but not soreness. I took all 3 to the vet and it cos me 20 for all 3!!
Your hamster may have an allergy or perhaps skin infection and should be treated with anti-biotics.
Please separate them and please take responsibilty for your pet and care for it!
Good luck.
