My dwarf hamster has been sleeping near the a.c. duct and lately he has been squeaking non stop. i think he may have a cold and he never stops squeaking. Whats wrong? should i show a vet?
Answers:
Please, remove your hamster's cage to a spot in your house where the cage isn't next to a heater, or the a.c! That's really the best thing that you can do for now. Also, make sure that your hamster is eating, and, drinking water. Keep checking on your hamster to see if anything happens. If you see anything unusal, then, yes, take your hamster to the vet! But, if everything gets back to normal, then, your hamster should be fine. The hamster cage should be near a window, though, make sure that the sun won't hit the hamster cage, and have a total heat glare. Thanks, and good luck,

yes go to a vet. and you should NEVER let a dwarf hamster near cold or a draft
I had hamsters for years and sometimes they squeek. First thing though take them away from the a.c. vent because if it is too cold they can actually go into hibernation. If it is a wheezing then I suggest calling a vet better safe than sorry. If it is an illness then they may be able to give a medicine to fix the problem.
Well, check and see if your hamster has wet tail. Wet tail is when hamsters get dhirea and there little bodies can't take it, so they die. The only way to cure it is feed it dry tail medicibe in their water. Your supposed to put it in there water every time you change it. I had a hamster that survived it, so maybe your hamster will too! I'll be praying for your little hamster! Good Luck!
I wouldnt take him to the vet nothing he could do for him most likely, Puting the cage in the pathway of any cooling system will kill him. He prob will die and next time keep any animal away from the airflow and move him but i am sure it is to late. take him to a pet store and have them look at them make sure it is a pet store that knows what they are talking about they may have medicine there for him or her
yes take it to the vet.
1. First take him right now away from the AC.
2. Now put him next to the window make sure that the sun doesn't hit the hamster cage.
3.Make sure he is eating and drinking, if not take him to the vet.
Wish he is okay
Good luck
