hi all,

i have a WW hammie name Indy.
I noticed dat he's shedding a lot of fur and found something on his tummy.
so i brought him to the vet today and the vet said dat maybe he's feeling itchy therefore scratch everywhere...
and caused the thingy on his tummy... but i feel like he's so kesian...
then the vet sprayed something on his body coz suspect dat it was mite infection...
and now it seems like he kenot hear me when i call his name..
is he turning deaf coz i think he's quite old liao.. sad.gif

hi all,

was wondering if anyone can gimme an answer?
i brought my ww hammie (Mr Indy) to the vet and was told dat he might have got mite infection so she sprayed him with some medication stuff.
when he got home, it seems like he can't hear me when i call to him and din drink much water.
is it normal?
and after a few days it seems dat he can hear me.
but like a bit blur blur.

and now i got him a new cage but he seems like a bit blur... dunno how to climb up the tube and stuff...and dunno how to find the food area..
is it due to old age?
the cage is Habitrail Ovo for Drawf Hamster...
i'm worried about him...
pls advice icon_question.gif

ovo is wayyyy to small. the wheel is very small also. i suggest you get a Wodent Wheel which costs RM78.80 or Comfort Wheel which costs RM35.
minimum cage size for a syrian is 2ft. the bigger is always better.

maybe he's not used to his new environment. he needs some time. btw, since you're using ovo you need to change the water bottle because the ovo bottle is very bad for them as they have to lay on their back to drink. how old is he?

to be honest, i do not know how old my hamster is coz he came into my house.
so i took him in and took care of him. but i've had him for almost 1 yr plus.
do u think it's becoz of old age therefore he chose to ignore me?

and now i've put him back in his old cage , he seemed happy but sleep most of the time or bite the cage.
when i put my hand near him he's like wanna bite....so now i'm so scared to touch him....

it could be that he's bored. spend more time with him. add more tubes and toys in his cage. bury those tubes under the bedding so that he'll dig them out. in this way he'll be busy. take him out often and give him chance to run around SUPERVISED!. from the pic i can't ecaxtly say how old is he. perhaps any seniors here could help. Habitrail safari is a good cage for one hamster. but adding more toys can make the cage congested. so plan wisely too.

i put him inside the ovo cage he dunno how to climb up the tube... so i put one toilet roll inside... as recommended by some sites... but he dun like it also...and i urge him to go inside the hamster ball...he dun wanna come out... but instead hide behind the running wheel inside his cage... maybe it's cooling there lar...

Darling, u shud let it get used to the new environment 1st lol..
Dun be too pushy as this might stress him... Try to play wif him oftenly, (use hand, not tube)..
Maybe at nite, once u sleeping, he'll playing alone.. Who knows??
