Re: Hamster on eye drops makes weird noises?
Hi Saskia. First of all I would make the cage safer by either lowering or removing the shelving if it`s too high or she`s able to topple off the edge. Hamsters climb, but they are clumsy and these injuries can sadly happen as a result. The drops the vet gave you could be to fight infection or may have some pain relief in the ingredient. It depends on the name of the drops and what the vet said. Is her eyeball swollen or what? The noises she`s making could be due to her feeling the drops as they are put in, or she`s responding to something else. Hamsters are not normally vocal unless scared or angry about something or feeling acute pain.
Did the vet say to go back again? Watch her closely and make sure she`s okay and eating/drinking. Give her a small amount of raw veggies like broccoli, cauliflower, garden pea and carrot. But only about the size of 5mm square pieces especially if she`s never had raw veg before. x
