Hi
I've just registered on the site to hopefully gain some hamster knowledge. We have owned our hamster for approximately 18 months. Over the last few months, Fluffy has been suffering from loss of fur, firstly on her back and now a little under her chin. I have noticed tonight that there is a small scab on her back between her shoulder blades and she smells really bad. I also noticed this evening that she has started losing fur further down her back towards her bottom. Does anyone know what this could be please? She is eating well, exercising plenty and her behaviour is the same, infact she doesn't seem to be bothered by her smell/fur loss at all. Could it be that she is too warm (i'm a typical mum i give her plenty bedding, don't want her getting cold)?
Please help, thank you.
Jo
