My hamster wont open one of her eye's. It's not swollen, and her face is saggy!?

Question

My hamster wont open one eye! Her face is saggy, and her butt is wet! She wont run anymore, and there's a lump on the back of her head, around her neck area. Also, is it normal for you to easily feel her spine if your petting her? Please answer as soon as possible, cause im leaving soon for a vaction!

Answer 1

It sounds as if your hamster is about to pass away. Your hamster could have had a stroke and that what your seeing is the after effects.

Answer 2

It sounds like she is seroiusly ill. Maybe cancer, wet tail, and a stroke all in one. Sounds like cancer because of the lump, sounds like wet tail because of the wet butt, and sounds like stroke because of the closed eye and saggy face. You should take her to the vet and have them humanely uthanize her to get her out of her pain, or else just make her as comfortable as possible before she dies. I'm very sorry about your hamster.

Answer 3

Im sorry, but it sounds like your sweetie is about to die.

She may have "wet tail" which I  havent read on the subject about  much but  its some type of sickness that they can easily get. Before my hamsters died, I could feel their spine and all of their little bones. Lumps and bumps are signs that she may be dying as well. But sometimes when the room temperature is too cold in the room, they will wake up with sticky eyes. Just like how us humans wake up with crust in our eyes, we also get stucky eyes when we are sick. Im so sorry.

Answer 4

Well my best guess of breeding gerbils and raising hamsters is, take it it to the vet ASAP. Hopefully they can help before its too late. Good~Luck and have a good Vaction! :o)
