Re: New Member feeling sad
Hello and welcome. I'm so sorry to hear about Buddy.
I definitely agree that speaking to the vet again is the best thing to do and metacam/petcam will certainly help as it is an anti inflammatory and gives pain relief which would help with his urge to chew or scratch at his stitches.
I have seen mention of a head cone for post-operative hamsters too which prevents them from chewing themselves but I'm not sure how this would add to the hamster's stress. I would definitely suggest contacting the vet.
Best of luck and lots of love to little Buddy.
