Hairless hamsters

[J mouse]

Does anyone have any info on hairless hamsters? I just got one and it doesn't seem to be drinking. Are they not as smart as the furry hamsters or something?

I know that hairless hamsters are different then a regular syrian hamster, and have different needs.

I have no experience with them, but I know that jennawing does. Hopefully, she will be around shortly to assist you.

I am really scared! THe new hairless hamster, Pinky, has wet tail and he's still not drinking! Please give me some advice on how to care for this delicate little animal! :crybucket

what are hairless hamsters our they in the same line of hairless animals like a hairless cat or dog?

[J mouse]

Yes, I think so. I think that almost any mammal/pet can be hairless.

you should go to pet extreme or something and get some medicine...FAST!
maybe you should bring your hamster.

Thanks everyone! I took him to the vet and he's doing a lot better now. He wasn't drinking because of the style of his water bottle, so I got him an easier kind to drink from. He's on medication and hopefully will be a fun and active hamster in no time! :D :) :D

I'm very happy to hear this. I was worried about the little guy, but didn't know what to post, other than go to a vet. I'm so glad you did and that he is doing better.
