ok, thank you, I am working on getting a vet. this is my 1st time needing one for a hamster so I'm having a little bit of a hard time finding one who will take her on such a short notice but hopefully I'll have taken care of it by next week.
what would be the treatment for an abscess or inflamed scent gland? also, do you know around how much it would cost by any chance? money is definitely not going to hold me back from taking her, but i just want to be prepared.
also, I'm assuming she's going to need to be asleep for treatment because like a typical robo, she's not great at sitting still, but she's so tiny, I'm worried she won't wake up. do you know how high the survival rate is?
