Default Re: What are warning signs of a diabetic dwarf hamster?

So I've had a look locally and it seems Diastix or Keto-Diastix are not available here. There are 'keto-strips' from a large pharmacy chain's own brand but I'm not sure if these measure urine glucose, the product description was very vague as to what exactly they are for.

I just checked and Monty has drunk around 26ml in the last week which is actually not that much when I actually read the measurement. Compared to my other three though it is about twice the amount that they have drunken.

Is 26ml over a week for an adult dwarf a lot?
