Answers:
first off make sure shes separated from the other hamster. i'm guessing they r syrian, not dwarf. syrians HAVE to be caged separately. take the nest/bed area of the other one and put it in a new cage. u can use a big 18 gallon rubbermaid tub temporarily.
u need to get her to a small animal vet. chk the phonebook or just call %26 get a referral or look online. until u can get there use a little Hydrogen Peroxide (3%) in small amounts to the area twice a dayfor disinfecting the wounds. if his eye is hurt u can wipe it with a warm wash cloth if it is closed. (wipe front to back in 1 direction) use a saline solution---contact lense or eye drop saline solution works on any cuts to his eye.
she needs to eat. try to give her cucumber. buy her some childrens plain pedialyte--by the baby food-- and feed it with an eye dropper to her. she if she'll eat some plain yogurt, shredded carrot, and hamster pellets that have soaked in water so theyre soft.
good luck! i hope she's better soon.
oh no i think u should see the pet vet and try to straighten things a bit
Take her to a vet if all of them are closed in your area try an emergency vet, if money is an issue check around to seee if any take payments, most do. Good Luck
Defnitly see a vet! They will probably fix things up! Not to worry though if your Hampster was bitten by hampsters that might of had shots but if not there is a 60% chance that nothing is going to happen! Good Luck!
The best way to save her is to put her out of her misery.
Get her a cage of her own. Hamsters are solitary animals and don't appreciate roomates. If you don't, they will continue to fight and she will probably be killed.
Getting her better will depend on how badly she is hurt. You should see a vet. Unfortunately, there is not a lot you can do for her. Just give her time and quiet, and wait and see.
Good Luck.
well they were just playing with eachother, i think you should take the other hamster out of the cage and put it in a different cage so that the other hamster can get some sleep and keep them separate because maby they dont like eachother.and if the hamster is stiff its dead. but then I would get another one and move on.
try cutting up some grapes and putting them in her mouth, making her eat them. That helps sometimes. Offer her carrots and other vegetables. anything to keep her hydrated/eating something. If you can, get her to a vet.
As for the hamsters attacking each other, what kind of hamsters are they? If they are Syrian hamsters they need to be kept APART. Syrian hamsters are anti-social creatures by nature and are EXTREMELY territorial. They should not live together, and if you are breeding them, they should only be together long enough to breed. If they are dwarf hamsters, they are social creatures, but they need to live together if you want them to remain social. If not, they will attack over territory.
Syrians cannot live together at all. They will kill each other. Even if they have the babies. Once it's time for babies to leave, make sure the babies leave! Dwarfs can live together from birth on up, and never really have any problems.
