Thank you �� Yes, Dora LOVES porridge so will try that first. (She also loves couscous but was very savvy to that yesterday and didn’t eat the blob we mixed with medicine...) I do tend to get her baby food snacks as a treat so will see if there’s a simple paste one she’ll like... Sigh. I haven’t tried it on her as I suppose I thought of it as being for ‘elderly’ hamsters and she’s 20months. But I suppose she pretty much is, now...

I’ve read threads on scruff if them if the tricks in food fail, but isn’t there a danger of damaging their eyes by doing that?? Or is that an urban myth?
