Hamster Central - View Single Post - Diabetes in a Dwarf hamster: My experience attempting to manage diabetes

When I first heard hamsters could have diabetes I really wanted to make my Crumpet get it. Then I found out Syrians can't get diabetes. I was sad. You might think I am being super cruel which is quite probably true however I am diabetic and I just want to be able to relate to someone because the diabetic I know treats his differently to me and we don't get on and he thinks I treat mine weirdly and stuff.
Also I thought diabetic hamsters were only supposed to be on a diet not meds but I don't know much about diabetic hamsters really.
