Question
u noticed u said female hamsters may hav genital bleeding once or twice in their life but mine bleeds once or twice in a month or so.. Should i sent it to a vet or is it normal?

Answer
Hi Anna,

No, it's not normal for a hamster to bleed that much.  She may have a uterine infection, or some other problem.  You should definitely take your hamster to a vet as soon as you can.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
