Stress
I've just moved Pickles into a new home, as I really felt she needed more room than the Pink Palace was providing her with. I found a cheap Ferplast Duna and bought it. However ive read that hamsters can get wet tail as a result from moving cages and I'm really worried Pickles will get it. She seems fine, and she has moved cages before and was fine. I put her own bedding from her old cage in with her as I thought the familiar smell might settle her? Am i being an overprotective mum?! haha
Please reassure me!

Re: Stress
I think she will be fine especially since you have moved her scent with the bedding. They can withstand a certain amount of stress and she does not have to cope with taming. new sounds/ smells etc at the same time. Hope she settles soon.
