Steph2 answered Tuesday August 31 2004, 7:37 pm: ahhhhh...thats so horrible!! i have 2 hamsters, they are my 3rd and 4th..my last one had cancer so we put him to sleep...which is what you should do!!! if your parents dont let you take him to the vet thats just cruel, they cant let him suffer. and no, you WONT DIE W/OUT HIM!! THATS HOW I FELT!! but just wait until your ready, and then you can get another hamster..i reccomend blackbear hamsters and panda bear hamsters..just so ya know...and please let me know how it goes..my sn is on my column or leave one in the inbox..hope it helped and good luck!!

I had two hamsters and mine was doing the same thing. I am sorry but yOu have to ask yOurself the question... "do yOu want him to Suffer or rest in peace?" I think yOu should try think really hard. I know it might hurt yOU really bad to loose him but... well... I really dont think that anilmmal's should suffer! I hope yOu make yOur own dicision and that yOU are ok.
LostAngel answered Tuesday August 31 2004, 5:34 pm: it sounds like he is really sick. Try maybe call the vet and see what your vet says and if the they its not good...try to convince ur parents to take the hamster to the vet...also this may nots ound like something you would want to hear but hamsters dont live long like people, dogs and cats..sry [ LostAngel's advice column | Ask LostAngel A Question ]
twizzler2 answered Tuesday August 31 2004, 5:33 pm: even if u cant get ur hamster to a vet. research as fast as u can or ask a friend or a teacher or something if they know about that. i have heard about something lyk that. my dog got bit by a venomous snake and they said his tissue mite go away and decay but it didnt happen cuz he got steoroids from the the vet(which is a medicine only give from the vet). Whatever u do..do it fast..i hope ur hamster is alright...he is in my thoughts. i love animals.
