Re: Torn ear
That amount of time is not a problem so long as you are well prepared. A proper pet carrier will be needed. A good amount of substrate inside for the hamster to dig down for sleep. Since you cannot have water, a chunk of cucumber is the best substitute. Tear up some basic white toilet paper into strips in case the hamster want some to nest with this. Then you can transfer the strips into the cage for bedding. Perhaps a cardboard tube as a hiding place.
I had my hamster in his carrier for about 5 hours yesterday as I took him to a hamster show. He slept virtually all of the time except when the judge woke him up for judging time. He was still asleep when we came home and had to be woken up to go in his cage.
