did you see my reply above?

2 syrian hamsters? are they in the same cage? if they are, they need to be separated asap. syrians are solitary creatures, if they're living together they can get territorial and harm each other. other dwarves still can live together but syrians don't even live together in the wild.

they don't need the other syrian .. no need to kesian them one ..

not to scare anyone but this was what i found out and witnessed myself ..

scenario : if a pair of hamsters fight and they are not separated, one day one might kill the other as they are fighting for space and territory. when one died, the other one would eat up the body. hamsters do that to get rid of their smell in the wild so that prey animals will not come to their space.

syrian hamsters are solitary creatures who must live separately. other dwarves still can live together in pairs but once blood is shed while "playing" or distressed squeaks are heard, best separate them into two cages to avoid unfortunate incident to happen.
