Almonds?
I am confused about almonds. Are they safe or not? Lots of people say no, but have also seen a lot of people give this toy their hamster, but it says it has an almond in the middle?!

Re: Almonds?
It depends on what type of almond.Certain almonds are safe while others are not,and I remember sweet almonds definitely being unsafe but hopefully someone else has an in depth list of which ones are safe and unsafe

I believe it is that sweet almonds are safe and bitter are not as they contain cyanide compounds? Don't take that as gospel.

Re: Almonds?
So is that toy ok? I want to get it for Sweep ... Though I believe they come apart easily so I could always put something else in the middle I guess

Re: Almonds?
I think it should be ok or you can get the same toy without the nut and put whatever Sweep likes as the treatin the middle.

Re: Almonds?
Pets at home near me have them. Some come with a nut, some come with a wooden ball and some come with nothing. In the middle.
Other pet shops may sell them and you an get them from other places on the internet.

Re: Almonds?
Ah ok thanks. Think I've seen the wooden ball ones but the ball looks tiny and my fear would be of Sweep swallowing it! Or pouching it ... Will take a look thanks. But someone said you can easily take them apart anyway so if I did get one with the nut in I could (hopefully!) just remove it!
