Default Re: Best odor controlling bedding for a stinky hamster in heat?

It isn't normal for a female to smell that bad that the whole house smells and it should only be there around one in 4 days so it is an idea the check her carefully for anything else amiss. Smells can come from urine infections and also with a pyometra (womb infection) You usually have a discharge with this but often a smell is the first sign. Is she drinking more? Is she bloated or lethargic. Wet tail also smells badly so check her underneath.
If in doubt a vet visit will be needed. I hope she is OK.
