diabetes ?

[berrybellaandnike]

Hi all.

my recently rescued dwarf hamster girl is very inactive. she spends most of her time in bed apart from coming out to eat drink and pee. sometimes she walks on her wheel for a few mins (never runs). Im not sure how old she is but she is quite over wight my guess is shes quite old.

Im slightly worried about her and want to give her the best possible life however long she has left.

apart from spending most of her time in bed she seems pretty happy and eats and drinks regularly. dose anyone think this sound like diabetes ?

If not how shall i go about getting her to lose wight or shall i not bother seeing as I think she is quite old and not not sure how long she has left.
will her losing wight make her more active or is this just how she is being an older hammy ?

thank you.
