Hi, I am a first time hamster owner, so I might be worried over nothing, but I haven't seen my hamster since to went back to her burrows at 10pm on Hogmanay. It beens about 38 hours now and food and water has not been touched. She is about 3-4 months old, and this is the first time she's not come up in a full day. Originally I had a playpen, but I rearranged it to allow larger free raom area around the living room. On NYE I let her try it out for the first time, could this of caused any stress on her? Is it normal for hamsters to randomly burrow for a day and half (so far) without coming out? Thank you. ....update: She's finally up and about. Seems ok. But I am wondering why she never came up for a whole day.
