This one before i changed the bedding. Now using kitchen paper towel. For a while.

My hamster change bedding twice a week but still have bad smell.. any idea how to solve this problem

Never buy stuff from there & boycott the shop. You guys will be supporting them in a way even though you just buy supplies from there.

As for discussion why PLC is more expensive, I believe is due to maintenance cost. Just look at the cage they keep the hamsters, always full with food, water & fresh bedding. I never see any injured/sick hamsters in there as well unlike petsmore. On top of that they are using homefriends bedding eventhough they got cheap bedding in stock. This shows that they ensure the hamster lives in an excellent environment. I am referring to sunway pyramid branch, not sure about others.

Empire (subang) petsmore on the other hand stinks, bedding wet with pee. Can sometimes see sick hamsters in it & they uses cheap bedding which is actually not very suitable for baby hamsters. Worst is they dont even have wheel in the cage. This is my experience for the past few months ago, not sure about now coz never been to petsmore for quite some time.

Yeah. We're very close, and she's the first hamster I teach how to do tricks.

last 2 weeks... my hamster give birth to 5 pups... after 2 days she ate them all.

Am i doing it wrong? I did not remove the male... i put a lot of tissues (shread)

Yeah yeah! But instead of rubbing her mouth, it's more like teeth cuz can feel her teeth.
It's really cute and feel so loved by them haha.

My little fatty, Pepper, had to be taken to see a vet last Saturday. He has some kind of rash at the side of his left cheek and appears swollen. Vet checked and said he is over-stuffing food in his cheek, then uses his legs to scratch it to push the food. The funny thing is the vet help him to vomit out all the food, went inside to mix some meds solution for him. While waiting I put him back to the carrier box (where he vomit the food earlier on). About 5 mins later, the vet came back to give him a drop of antibiotic, I realized that the food that he vomited was gone. I thought that maybe it falls on the side of the box or something. The vet grabbed him and wanted to drop the solution in his mouth, this greedy fatty vomit back all the food he just vomited. Haha, now I know how greedy is a hammy.

I got some questions;

1. Is offering timothy hay a good idea for hammies?
2. I'm thinking of switching my wood bedding to paper bedding. Used it before but can't tahan the price monthly, that's why using wood bedding. Any suggestion for cheaper and less harmful alternatives?

I went to USJ Animal Clinic at USJ 8, Subang Jaya. The doc had a hard time to measure the correct amount of antibiotics for my little fatty. Cuz she said too much could kill, the hammie's too small. She gotta mix the normal animal antibiotics with some water to dilute it. Gave me a syringe full of the solution and only feed my hammie once a week. Afraid the dosage too much. Haha

Excellent. The vet, rather looks surprised when I came with my hammie and said it is seldom people bring hammie for medical attention. But she is very knowledgeable about hamsters, hamster type and possible diseases. She knows how to hold my hammie well as it didn't struggle when she tries to drop the antibiotic into its mouth (could be possible that my hammie never rejects anything when it comes to food). She even taught me how to drop the meds on my own. Charged me RM35 but for me it's ok since it's a seldom occurrence. I head that in US usually hammie owners bring their hammies to vet for yearly check-ups and they didn't even care the cost. Thanks for your tips; Imma make my own paper beddings, like school project before. 

where can get this.. so nice eh
can walk the hamster... like dog

This is bad idea, you will hurt the fella's backbone and legs. Plus, if your hammy are tamed and close to you, he won't run away if released. I always release my roborovsky around my room, he will only walk around near me and wouldn't go far.

Hello everyone! I have 2 female winter white dwarf hamsters in one cage. I bought them together and initially they are fine together, with occasional squeaking (I found information on net stating that this is normal as they are interacting).

However as time past (1 months+), they squeak more and when I look up to them more closely, I can see that one is bullying another, and the one being bullied is the one who squeaks a lot. So in this case, I shall have to separate them? Any idea that I can make them well together? Hmmm...

* posted an adoption notice in "Pets Adoption" as well, somehow if separating them is the best choice that I can make, I think I shall have to let go one of them :'( *

Thanks for your reply!
Is this the storage box that we usually see it in supermarket and can be used to keep any stuffs in it?
Wow, it seems very nice and spacious! Can I know how many hammies are living in it?
Will changing to a bigger cage enables them to live together? *thinking*
Hmmm... I am still a student and living in a hostel room.
Going to leave here in a few months time, so it's kinda hard for me to have another cage with me as I shall need to transport everything home.
At this moment, I put one of them inside a round basin with some sands and food, but it is not so spacious though, but still it's better to put them together. They squeak whenever they meet :'(
Thank you for your offer, shall consider it
