Hamsters are very cute little critters, but they’re hiding a secret. They have huge chompers that can really hurt! Is there anything you can do to keep your hamster from biting you?
You can greatly reduce your chances of getting
bitten by properly socializing your pet. You start by putting your hand in the
cage once or twice a day and leaving a treat behind. Soon, your hamster will
come up to check things out, at which point you can try petting him. Eventually
he can be removed from the cage.Even after he’s socialized, he can still bite
if he’s scared or startled. Make sure you provide a safe atmosphere for your
hamster to play when he comes out of the cage.If your hamster still bites, you should
schedule an appointment with your Animal Medical Center of Marquette to make sure there isn’t anything wrong with
your furry friend.
