Hi Guys,
I'm having trouble finding a definitive answer for whats going on with my hamster Pancake so I'm hoping you can help.
She has always been super active since we got her and just a little angel. This past weekend I had to take her to my other home and have her there for the weekend because I was going to be away from my apartment for 4 days and I didn't want her to be alone.
When she was at my house she was fine the first day but the second day their was a fowl odor that was coming out of her cage. I replaced what bedding I could but I had just cleaned the whole cage 3 days prior.
Then the next day she had piled all the bedding away from her nest and all over my floor. Whenever I would look for her she was either sleeping or had all her food in her mouth.
Which I felt like she wasn't able to keep her food safe.
I didn't notice anything was seriously wrong till last night when I brought her back to my apartment. Usually she would run for long times out in her ball but she ran for a few seconds and then stopped. Whenever I would grab her ball she would be sneezing.
She has NO discharge from her nose, no urine stains or anything that would indicate wet tail. Nothing in her eyes or anything discharge. Her teeth don't seem over grown and there is no sign of any injury.
She is still eating but she wont exercise and she's sleeping a lot.
I've been reading about warm milk and honey in her bottle to help her.
Is there anything else I can do? Is this just a stress cold or is my baby not ok?
I feel terrible seeing her like this.
I plan on going to a pet store today to buy whatever she needs to get better.
Please advise
Thank you
Love Kate
