Thanks everyone.

She's been behaving oddly for just a few weeks. No other physical symptoms. I will get vet to look at her heart. I did wonder about pyo but couldn't quite make it all fit, however, I will mention this to the vet on my next visit.

She came out last night and was very lively which was nice. She's lying with her head in one of her shelters and her bum stuck out this morning!

We do burn incense and candles but we always have done and she's not close to them. My other half thought she may have been behaving oddly since we got our last hamster (we always have several though so she's never been the only one). I moved her cage away from the new one in case that was upsetting her. The vet has thought about diabetes.

I don't think she's just in heat. It a stronger smell than any of my hamsters previously and would that suddenly start after 12 months?

Thanks again. I'll keep going.
