Re: minging hamster
There will be an emergency vets open-if your hamster is seriously ill then call them tonight! Clean cages generally help too in order to keep them healthy... In the meantime take him out of his cage and comb him through to at least give him some relief tonight as 'minging' as that may be.

Re: minging hamster
How can cleaning out the QUOTE minging cage kill him quicker? Im sorry but id like to see him in comfort and clean than leave him in a minging cage riddled with mites.Sort it out.

Re: minging hamster
No cage should get into a mingingly filthy condition to start with. I have never seen a hamster with flystrike/mites. the only way it can get like that is if you are not taking good care of it. Sorry if the truth hurts, just get him sorted. You should be looking at him and handling him daily and he should never end up with any bugs on him,you cannot be cleaning him out enough

Re: minging hamster
What bedding are you keeping him on? Sometimes mites live in the bedding but as others have said if the cage is filthy then looks like thats why hes so bad...you noticed he was dieing last night but didnt do anything about it - but now at night you have taken a closer look to see what could be mites - when can you get him to a vet? Oh yes and clean his cage out - this wont kill him but staying in a dirty cage will!

If you wanted him to survive you would have taken him to a vet when they were open! Why is the cage mingingly dirty?? How often did you clean him out?? Poor animal! Do you have others? Theres something very wrong here.
