Hi everyone,
My gorgeous lil albino Syrian hamster has had a big move today as I’ve moved house 4 hours away. I know it must’ve been very traumatic for her. However, since I’ve got her to her new home she’s been in great spirits (which I’m so happy about). I got her out for a once over and some free roaming and I noticed she has what looks like puss coming from her vagina (the hole above her Anus) and it is slightly swollen. I am hoping it is just her time of the month so I have gently cleaned it with a tiny bit of warm water. She is eating, drinking and roaming around completely fine (and her poo is solid as ever).
I am just a bit worried as never noticed it swell slightly before?

Any idea what it might be and how I can help her. She doesn’t seem to be in any pain - could it be the stress of the move just making her wet the bed more than usual (I have cleaned her bed leaving a small amount of the old in).

Thank you!!!
