Default Re: Is your hamster diabetic?

After reading this I'm a little worried about my Zeke
The last month or two he has been drinking loads. When I change the water bottle daily his bottle is almost always empty where before I used to tip most of the undrunk water away.

He's lost weight (I wondered if that was because he was getting old)

But reading on here it says irritable/biting when they didn't before made alarm bells go off for me! Zeke used to be the most loving little guy but in the last week he has bitten me 3 times and drawn blood.

I think it's time to get some ketostix and test him.
