My winter white

21 11:07:29

Question
My winter white hamster fell about 3 feet. He fell about 10 minutes ago onto a rug. Beneath the rug is a hard linoleum floor. He is probably about 7 or 8 weeks old. Is he going to be okay? I'm really scared.

Answer
Dear Natasha,
thank you for your question.
I would recommend that you see a vet with the hamster tomorrow at the latest to make sure everything is okay. Mostly, hamsters don't get harmed in such a fall, but I can'r say for sure of course.
I hope I was of some help to you
