QuestionThis morning, my daughter went to pick up her hamster to hold her. She was not herself at all. my daughter started screaming because the hamster seemed dead. She has barely had any life in her and seems very skinny all of a sudden. She was normally fat and playful. She is barely breathing. She is about 2years old. is she just dying of old age? Help! Please!!
AnswerShe may or may not be. You must bring your hamster to a vet as soon as possible. Try to find a vet that is familiar with small animals. Even if you can't find one, you must bring the hamster to a vet now. It may be that your hamster is ill and can be helped, but she needs to be examined to tell.
