So when I get up this morning, I go into the room they are in to check on them ............... the cage door is open :shock: :shock: :shock:
I utter a few expletives, and then frantically look in the cage - no sign of them, ok deep breath, look again - one is in the bottom of one of the tubes, the other one I *think* is in her wooden house, but flat on her back, shallow breathing and feels cool to touch. Oh no, please no I say, dismantle the cage, take hamster house out, when hammie comes popping out and looking at me like 'what's all the fuss about'?
Breath another sigh of relief. *must be more careful in future*, although to be honest, I really wasn't well yesterday !
I take it that when they sleep, it's like hibernating, so they conserve their energy?
