Freak accident, hamster walking funny?!!
Hi all,
I feel sick to my stomach posting this but my hamster freaked out and fell onto a hard surface today, not from very high but still worrying. Once she landed, she was lay on her side and struggled to get up for about 5-10 seconds, and then after this walked completely fine. I immediately put her back in her enclosure and watched for any changes in behaviour but couldn't see any at all, she was her normal self. I will obviously be keeping a very close eye on her and she won't be coming out of her enclosure until I know all is well.
Just wondering if it's worth seeing a vet about this? I just want the best for my girl and this is the first time she's ever hurt herself and hopefully the last, it's an awful feeling.
