Pebbles isnt well :/

Hi Gazmo.
We supplement our old ladies diet with crickets and porridge.
We also mash sweet potato and boil up some pasta.
I bought vitamin drops from amazon, made by vetark.
You only need 1 drop per 100mls.


Smooshes to Pebbles xx

So sorry to hear that. By the way I'm new here. I have a 6 month old hamster just got her about a month ago. I was wondering how old is pebbles? I heard that a hamster's lifespan is 5 years. I hope she feels better soon.

[Gazmo]

thanks pebbles is 1 year and 9 months old x
Syrian hamsters live for about 2 years, so a few less than five x
thanks

Sadly, shes worse again, barely waking up, not using any toys, she wakes up for food and water, and keeps wheezing in her sleep :S

Every time I see a post on this thread I am immediately worried about Pebbles, Gazmo. I hope she's still with us for a while. My Ted E. Bear is 5 months younger than Gazmo.

Thanks DrK, i hope so too, i do worry every time i check on her x she just doesnt look herself :/ bless her x i always see her as the baby, and its weird seeing the effect of old age on her x

SOme pics of my baby girl. Shes not doing good, if i wake her up to check her, it takes her at least 2 minuets for her to open her eyes :/ and shes squeak/wheezing in her sleep :/

But i got a picture of her, and a little video, where you can see how she is, especailly around her bum :/ x



So yeah, in the video you can see her nose is a bit bloody and her back end is a mess :/ x

So sorry to hear about Pebbles, Gazmo

She looks like a lovely little old lady, just make her as comfortable as you can.

Sending my love and thoughts to you during this hard time x

[Gazmo]

Thank you she really is a lovely girl

Its terrible when you know somethings wrong but you cant find the answer.
My Moo is almost 19months old and for the last 2 months she has lost around 30g, even tho she is still over 200g she is starting to feel thin and i dont like it.

Big luvs to pretty Pebbles xx
