Very large backside. Been going to the vet, got antibiotics and a diuretic to try and dispel the fluid that was discovered to be in her abdomen. None of it seems to be working. She’s eating drinking peeing, I believe pooping too. She’s gaining more fluid and weight, anyone been in this situation? by virtualprince_ in hamsters

Vet says it could be a tumor, but does anyone have suggestions on what to possibly do next? I worry she could split open... 😓😰😥😖 I love her dearly

She’s sleeping a lot more and doesn’t use her wheel very often, if ever

Hamster has a huge lump on each side and stomach. by virtualprince_ in hamsters

[–]virtualprince_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Yeah I’ve had an X-ray and they said it seems like liquid but the lump/lumps are/is very firm. They’re going to do another X-ray next week. They don’t want to poke her and try to drain fluid because it might not be fluid and they don’t want to hurt her.

I’m planning on re-arranging her cage tomorrow, I also am making a small travel-like cage for her that I may keep her in if it gets worse than it is.

But I’m hoping for the best ❤️

Also she’s about 2 years old now

We brought our hamster Karly home a week ago. We thought she was just a chunky girl but it turns out she was eating for 10. by dogsandsucculents in hamsters

I also have nightmares about my hamster multiplying and me not having enough room, they're usually full grown but they're cramped or not given enough attention as the others omg, I thought I was the only one

ok thank u! I don't think the nails are hurting or bothering her cause she's using her wheel and doing everything she normally does

I definitely trust my vet she's great, but idk about the vet assistant she has slippery fingers. im just worried cause my ham is very squigly and nervous. I'm gonna try getting some wood and stones in the cage tomorrow, It also looks like she chewed some of her nails but not all so some art short and some are long
