Default How long until removed?

Greetings,
I recently taken out a small squid from a takoyaki, washed it and placed it on a stick for my hamster to eat and she enjoys it.
My question is how long until I should remove the treat, and not just the squid, all other treats such as meats, dairies, fruits/veggies and even those from pet stores?
Thanks in advance.

I would take meat/dairy items out after 3 or 4 hours, less if it's a particularly hot day. Yogurt is safer I think because it's already fermented and therefore acidic. Fruits and veggies I would remove in the same time frame of a few hours if they're particularly moist ones (like cucumber) or maybe leave them longer if they're fairly dry, like carrot. Dry treats from pet stores like grain sticks and yogurt drops are safe to leave.

Anything like roast chicken or turkey I would remove after about 6 hours, fortunately, my 2 have it eaten within minutes of getting it.
The same with fruit and veggies. Treats from pet stores are made so they can be left in the cage for a long time.
