you can use damp cloth, make sure you squeeze all the water out, and wipe the body.
then use dry cloth to wipe off the water on the body or use hair dryer to blow them dry. but the hair dryer must put at least 2ft away from the hamster, if not can burn the fur

Use hairdryer, if do wrongly later BBQ hammy no good no good, and if wind too strong, later become superman-hammy flying doh.gif
Try under hot sun, tongue.gif keep blow with your mouth, the "air" also quite hot XD

Contrary to popular advice, you can bath hamsters. I used to bath my male RC hamster once every two weeks because he got some kind of smell. I think it's a male hormone thing, but my current female hamster has never had a bath before except when she had diarrhea a couple of months back and got poo all over herself.

Honestly, I don't advice bathing a hamster unless it's VERY tame and used to being handled.

Steps on how to bath a hamster:

1. Prepare shampoo for small animals (I use Hagen brand, pink color shampoo made in Canada), towel and a small "kong" of very warm water. It's best if you dilute the shampoo, 1 part shampoo to 6 parts water.

2. Slowly lower the hamster into the kong of water up to its front legs. Pour a little diluted shampoo on the hamster and gently lather up.

3. Gently pour water on the hamster's back (avoiding face, nose and ears) until the shampoo is all rinsed away.

4. Towel dry immediately. My RC hamster was very tame and allowed me to blow dry him. If you choose to blow dry your hamster, used the hot setting to blow off access water and then switch to the cooler setting. Never face the nozzle of the hair dryer to close to the hamster.

I can sense that inexperience hammy handler will drown this hammy in that "kong" sweat.gif better not trying if you can't handle your hammy properly.. putting the hamy into the "kong" sounds so dangerous, what if the hammy shake and u suddenly let go rclxub.gif

haha.. this has been mentioned a lot of time. You can just get hamster litter sand, or cat non-clumping litter sand, and many is using Frisian cat non-clumping sand. Maybe you can give that a try tongue.gif

Hamster is not stupid to eat sand, yes they will take and try to eat it, to test if its food, but then they won't eat once they know it is not food. I think someone said this before too.

I think put back a little old bedding is just for the hamster to recognise their tank-mate if the tank got more then one hammy. If the hammy own the entire tank, just use all new one lor..

Actually I am not so sure, I just recall back what I read.. I read back a few version of hammy thread before I actually got one LOL..

Some they scare the hammy dun recognise the tank mate then will start to fight when place new bedding. Since robo is the most socialable breed, maybe different hmm tongue.gif
