sudden weight loss in hamster HELP!!!

over the past few days florrie has lost weight rapidly. shes a dwarf russian hamster and is still eating a bowl of food a day plus a cube of cheese and some other veggies. i bred her myself from 2 healthy hamsters with no health problems and up until now shes been a picture of hamster health. she is kept alone in a large cage and gets regular exercise.
thanks in advance

Re: sudden weight loss in hamster HELP!!!

Hi we have a winter white hamster and she did exactly the same. It turned out it was because we had put her in a new cage and she didnt like it she is fine now after putting her back in the old 1.Have you changed anything in its cage that could be all it is.
