Thank you so much, something just doesn't feel right- she was such a happy girl and now she just seems off. I'll take her to the vet as soon as possible. How do I actually tell if a hamster is over weight? I've never owned one before and obviously she is getting bigger because she is growing. She just seems large to me but I don't know whether I'm being unfair calling her fat!! She just feels podgy when I pick her up- should I be able to feel her ribs etc.?

Thank you so much for both of your help- its very appreciated.
