hamster facts brought to you by me:

Hamsters should not have junk food

Hamsters should not get wet

Hamsters should not be placed on metal bars

Hamsters should not be handled ruff by adults or small children

Hamsters need to be cared for properly by a responsible owner like any pet.

Hamster owners need to be on the ball, meaning hey need to research .

Chocolate - Theobromine, a substance contained in chocolate and cocoa, is poisonous to animals, including your hamster. It diminishes the blood flow to the brain and can cause heart attacks and a variety of other life-threatening problems. An important rule to remember is that the darker the chocolate, the more theobromine it contains:

Milk chocolate - 1-2 mg per gram of chocolate

Dark chocolate - 15-16 mg per gram of chocolate Even a tiny amount of chocolate can kill your hamster.

Symptoms of chocolate ingestion include:
Rapid heartbeat
Vomiting
Diarrhea
Hyperactivity
Seizures
