Realistically, how high can a hamster fall?
Realistically speaking, how high can a hamster fall before they get hurt? I've heard people saying that anything higher than 6-8 inches will cause them to get injured.
However, my Kit Kat has jumped out of my hand at 3 feet high on two separate occasions. Each time she has scared the poop out of me and I've gone to bed feeling bad and kicking myself over it. Other than being scared right after the drop she hasn't been hurt.
So again, how high can a hamster fall before they get hurt? I only ask because I don't want to feel so horrible and worried after it happens. I'll still be careful in not letting it happen and I will still feel horrible and worried but not as much. It's more about feeling like it's not the end of the world when she falls. Kinda like when a mother see's her kid trip and even though he's scraped his knee and there is blood she knows that he'll be ok.
