Hello again,

since my hammy was sneezing quite a bit, I called the vet and they suggested to bring him in, which I did. The trip to the vet was very stressful for him. The vet suspected that it could be a cold and prescribed Baytril 2.5% to be given as one drop into 50ml of water for 5 days. I've followed their advice but my poor hamster is still sneezing (somewhat less but still). He is still active, eats, drinks, etc. But I am really worried. I'll call the vets again in the morning and they'll probably say to bring him in again. I'm just really worried about all the stress. I've had him just a bit over a week and he's just starting to recover from his last visit (he is very timid). Has anyone had any experience with something similar and do you have any advice?
