Feeling bad here… typing one-handed with my Daisy White (yep, named after Houdini's mistress) in my lap… Only a few months old, tons of energy until today when I noticed her sleeping all day. I got her out, she's really cold and is barely alive. Almost no energy. Ate fine yesterday, no wet tail, cleaned her cage a week ago. If she can make it to Monday (it's early Sun. morning here now) I'll try a vet visit but I doubt we'll make it that far. And unfortunately, this same sequence happened nearly exactly to my Syrian about two months ago. Any insight? I've had several hamsters through the years,I love them- this sucks. Doesn't appear to be much pain, just severe lethargy.
