I need information about black bear hamster ?

Question

i need the information so my black bear hamster can live longer and i just got it last night

Answer 1

Clean the cage with a pet spray, such as 'clean cage' disenfectant by super pet. Clean all the wires, the toys, EVERYTHING.

give him a good diet. check the mixes.. don't get one with molasses as a first ingredient and give him a teaspoon of clean veggies once a day.

keep his life varied- take him out often, get new toys, change around the cage setup.

Answer 2

i got mine yesterday too!!

the only info i can give is too:

Look after him well.

Because u only had him yesterday don't keep picking him up for a few days or he will get stressed and he will get a horrible illness called wet tail its when he gets green stuff coming out of him and 9 out of 10 rabbits die from it!!

Give him small portions of fruit only and only hand feed it him so he doesn't store it and it doesn't rot in his cheek pouches ( which can cause infection ) or in his cage.

Get him gnawing toys and chew bars so his front incisor teeth don't grow to long.

Give him treats occasionally.

Get an exercise wheel because its a good way of providing exercise and hamsters love them!!

And maybe even get him a seesaw.

Hamsters love exploring so get a big cage with either tunnels, ladders or ramps.

Give your hamster time to settle in to his new home.

A hamster also needs a well-balanced diet in order to remain fit and healthy.

Hamsters do not drink much but much have fresh supply of water.

Clean your hamsters cage out 1-2 times a week.

Hamsters enjoy sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, carrots, sweetcorn, cucumber, apple and banana but they are only tiny animals so you must only give them small portions.

Never give your hamster sticky food as this can cause it to get into the cheeck poches and that can caue problems.

Hope this helps add me as a friend if you want more info abot hamsters!!

You can't, it will only live to be around 2 years if its taken care of properally.

Oh FYI its a Syrian, black bear is just a cutsy name so petstores sell them.
