Answer 5

what a scary thing to be curious about

Answer 6

I guess your questions scared everybody who read it!

This is for your curiosity - Theoretically, hamsters can live without food for 3-4 days in the wild or longer if they have a stock of food that they have hoarded in their habitat which they can survive on until it gets over.

However it is very hard to prove the theory since they have a great protection process called hibernation. They can survive for months without food and water when they hibernate and most hamsters would go into hibernation before they starve, so your question is wrong in the sense that a hamster would not die from starving, it would most probably go into hibernation and save itself.

Answer 7

15 days

Answer 8

WHAT A SICK PERSON

Answer 9

People are so ignorant! Why are you looking at this question in a bad way? He is really curious and you keep ignoring what he just said- IT'S FOR CURIOSITY!!!!

And, I really don't know how long they could live w/out food.

Answer 12

Hahahahahaha, i opened this question ready to post a comment like 'dont you dare!' lmaoo

I suppose it would depend on how fat they are =P hahah

Answer 13

If you want to go away so can not feed it, please ask a neighbour or even the local school if they can look after it for you. There will be someone who is willing to do so. Dying of starvation is a very painful death for a hamster because all of its organs start to fail and gradually break down.
