Re: Is my hamster ok?
how is she right now? It sounds like she has an infection unfortunately, as the main symptoms are laid back ears and being hunched over. Biting can also be a sign of trying to hide illness.
However, if she is still active and eating, its probably nothing or at least nothing too serious. If you have easy access to a vet, its always nice to know there's nothing wrong just to be on the safe side.
My Syrian acted very similarly when she had a UTI but she also had blood spots in her cage and was very lethargic. For now, maybe just make sure to keep a very close eye on her, but being hunched, laid back ears, and biting are signs of pain so if you can get to a vet, that would be the best option.
good luck!
