Hi candice. It depends how frequently she`s squeaking and if you can determine why. Hamsters are normally quiet but can and will make various noises depending on what they are doing or reacting to things. Breathing noises now and then or he odd little sneeze is usually nothing worrying and they can make these sounds after waking up or while still in the nest. If your hearing high pitched squeaks a lot and seeing behaviour that isn't normal, it can be related to pain or discomfort, so you need to determine which it is. Normal or abnormal.

Listen over the cage closely and note down how often the squeaking is happening and if she`s reacting in any strange way. Is she darting about afterwards? Or does she just sound as though she`s sneezing or making the noises intermittently? x
