Advice on glue

Is ALL glue gun glue safe for hamsters?

None of the shops I looked in had 'non toxic' written on the pack.

Does anybody know the answer? I really want to know this too.

I use non-toxic glue whenever I need to glue something that my chinchilla might bite. I think that the same applies to hamsters but I'm not sure.. Don't know if there is a safer glue...

PVA is by far the best non-toxic glue in my opinion. It's s probably as safe as you can get...

just look for "non-toxic" somewhere on the box

pretty sure most if not all glue gun sticks are non toxic though anyway

I remember buying in Hobbycraft, theirs don't say non-toxic, but one of the 'branded' ones did. I would imagine that if it doesn't claim to be non-toxic, then it isn't, as the non-toxic status is likely something they would want to advertise (namely for child-orientated crafting, but benefiting animals too).
