My mom and I took my pet hamster to the vet today, because she has an ear infection.

The vet prescribed her medicationcation, but then, he was feeling her stomach, and was wondering if she had a tumor. But, he also said that it could just be a gas bubble. I want to know so badly what it actually is. PLEASE help!!

  1. A GASS BUBBLE..??! WTF?!?

    dude.. its a tumor definately ..

    but never fear!!

    most tumors are not fatal in MY hammys

    well if its in their tummys anyways =]

    so it should be fine


  2. Yes, it may very well be a gas bubble. But is it still there? Check tomorrow. If it is still there and seems bigger, you may want to bring her to the vet again.

    Also, when did you get your hamster? I don't mean to suprise you, but she may be pregnant. If you've had her for over a month, that's not likely.

    If the 'gas bubble' is smaller, it is probably a gas bubble. Also, feel around the stomach area daily, just to be sure. If it feels hard and tough, it probably is a tumor. Just give your hamster lots of love and attention, and continue to take great care of her. Good luck, and best wishes!
