Oh okay. How's the vet there? Hamster experienced?

I'm finding for a just-in-case vet who knows how to handle hamster cases

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. brows.gif

You're welcome. Make sure your paper bedding does not have ink onit. Can I have the vets address ?

Right in opposite of Taipan's mosque, you will see a row of shop lots with a car workshop at the corner. smile.gif smile.gif

I would not suggest this hamster leash actually. Cause their body small and usually they don't like to be tied up since they move their arms and legs a lot. Can cause blood circulation problem if not careful.

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.

Adding to the trust thing, if your hamster is tame and trust you .. this thing might break their trust to you .. cause they see it as something that will hurt them and make them uncomfortable and you, the owner is putting it on them .. wink.gif

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 :'( *

I think you have to separate them but don't give one up just yet. You can actually just get a storage box and make a mesh wire lid for her. This is what I do for my boy.

The storage box is only RM 50. It might be a bit big but it's affordable.

If one is bullying the other, then you have to separate them cause they might fight and eventually injure each other. Do consider keeping her if possible.

If not, PM me the photo and I'll try to help you find a loving owner smile.gif

Thanks for your reply! smile.gif
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?smile.gif
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 smile.gif

Yup, that's the one we see in the supermarket. I can't guarantee that your hamsters will not fight if they are in a bigger cage cause they might still be territorial.

I only have one boy there cause I was afraid he might fight with others. You should separate them at the moment and give the other hamster it's necessities first. Bedding, food and drink.

Ya, they might still be territorial even though changed to a bigger cage. Hmmm... and now they are sleeping soundly and living happily in their own separated place~ I really love your storage box cage, maybe will consider to have it after this biggrin.gif

Hey, I see you guys like to put the wooden accessory in your cages. Wouldn't the sharp wood splinters like, cut into the hamsters? ><
And how do you keep the wooden stuff clean cuz I think it would grow fungus or something right?

I'm having my holidays and I promised my girl that I'll make a playground for her this week.

Make sure there's no sharp edges on the wood before giving it to the hamster. Also make sure your hamster does not pee on it. I sometimes soak it in hot water for a while when I'm cleaning his cage but unlike other things which can be dried and given back to him, I let the wooden ones dry for a day or two, check for fungus and give it back to him.

Yup, there's more space for them to roam around actually and since hamsters are active at night, the large area provides them a space to run and dig around, closest thing they can do like in their natural habitat. Give them a good amount of bedding as well - they would love to tunnel around.

Don't try to put them together since one is afraid of the other and the other just bullies. They want their own space. Although just to check, you sure both of them are females?

My hammies inside the wooden home, sleeping like in a coma.  biggrin.gif

Lovely home you have there for the hammies! biggrin.gif

Looks like we have the same wooden bridge. I used the plastic corner bowl as well but my hamster bites the side so now I switch to ceramic bowl. Just a q though, is the masking tape safe for the hamsters? I wanted to use it but afraid my hamster will get his whiskers stuck to the glue or toxic if he licked the glue.

It should be fine though, and depends on the hamster.
I use the fat sticking brown tape on the wheels, my robos don't chew them, my girl she doesnt chew on them but once or twice she did it last time.
She's still fine.

Just wondering, I'm using sand bedding, noticed that most of owners here are using wooden shreds bedding. Is it OK for them to tunnel around? smile.gif
