Help! My daughter's hamster has p**p stuck in her fur!

Question

I know you are not supposed to bathe them... but baby wipes are not enough! Any ideas?

Answer 1

you might have to cut the fur off and let it grow back

Answer 2

i would use mild kitten shampoo and a damp rag

Answer 3

Wash it

Answer 4

get a comb for lice or nits, and that will get the majority of it out, then wait for it to dry, and comb it again.

Answer 5

Get some gloves put them on and pull out the p**p.

If its diarrhea then keep doing what your doing.

Answer 6

tey will get it out them selves it will be fine  

Answer 7

Just clip the hair that has the f***s stuck in it. Then use another baby wipe if you have too.

I wouldn't use a comb though, she probably won't like it when it pulls.

Answer 8

make it pee on itself to wash it out

Answer 9

Mild baby shampoo will sort that out mateyy!

(if not shave it) tehe joking xx

Answer 10

bath the hamster in baby shampoo!!

Answer 11

Hamsters can wash themselves... or you could do it.

take a warm wash cloth/towel. Never put them directly in water.

Answer 12

You should try and bathe it with mild baby shampoo, and then try and comb it out afterwards. This will make it moist, and probably much easier to get out of her fur.

If that does not work, I honestly would recommend cutting the hair that the p**p is stuck in, and let it grow back. This is not cruel or uncommon, but it's also not very good to allow p**p to linger around in her fur for long periods of time.
