Hi Everyone,
I'm really worried about Haffertee
I posted a few weeks ago having noticed that Haffertee had lost some weight and Bunsey suggested (thanks!) that it might be a slightly premature sign of hamster middle age as H has just turned one! He's been a bit less active during the hot weather but he's improved now it's cooled off a bit. However, I've just got home and got him out of his cage and his fur has got a bit patchy on top of his head and neck. I remember reading about Cushing's Disease and now I'm worrying that that's what he's got
He's still quite thin and less active than he used to be (despite an escape bid earlier in the week!) Does it sound like Cushing's? I'm going to take him to the vet on Monday- does anyone have any suggestions for hamster friendly vets in North London?
Thanks so much for any ideas- it's such a relief to know that there are such helpful and knowledgeable people on the forum
