Default Re: An Aging Hamster

Thank you for the tips! Last month, she went to the vet because she had gas built up in her system, and it could've killed her (who knew?!). She's all better now (and looks much smaller, haha), but we've changed her diet according to our vet's advice since then - no kibble with "fun" colors or various nuts. Basic old ham diet - all natural - with just pellets and a bit of dried veggies.

She's definitely still active. Her back is arching a bit - but she's lost quite a bit of weight so this might just be her body, adjusting to its new size.
