P.t.r

I wondering if anyone could help me.

For the signs of good health in a hamster i need to mention the P.T.R which is the pulse, temperature and respiration

I have already found out the temperature which is 36.2oC-37.5oC, but cant seem to find the respiration and pulse.

If anyone could help me i would be really greatful

The pulse is about 400 beats per second, and goes to around 5 if hibernating. What are you going to do take an infant stethoscope to pick out a pet?
