Default Re: Treating a hamster ear infection

I also agree with aforementioned advice.
I've recently taken one of my hamsters to the vet three times involving a car journey and he didn't appear stressed by it.

I put him in a large transport box with plenty of substrate, his spare house and food scattered around to give him something to do. He was fine.

Keep in mind that trying to treat an infected ear yourself could actually make it worse. If you were in disconfort with an infected ear, would you treat it yourself or see a doctor or nurse is the question i'd be asking myself.
