My roborovski hamster isin't eating and it's just very sad

Question

i got him 2 days ago and it doesn't eat all it does is sit under his wheel and i called a veterinarian and they said it's ok but it's not OK!!!!!

Answer 1

Two days ago? Yeah, like everyone else said, just give it some time. It's fine, and you didn't have to go call a vet for that. I guess you're just really caring!  

Answer 2

When I got my roborovski hamster, I thought he didn't eat his food either; it was just there...under his wheel, too! He's fine, and I know he's eating his food because I can see it. Try: Kaytee Forti-Diet food for Mouse, Rat & Hamster. They look like little cylinder drops. A worker at Petsmart recommended it to me and my hamster eats it. Good luck!

Answer 3

your hamster is just scared because he has entered a new cage with none of it's friends roborovski hamsters are very social hamsters and no matter how much you dred getting another hamster you will have to because if your hamster continues being all depressed like that then it might die of a broken heart oh and im not trying to be mean when i said that it's just thats what happend to my little bob you see he died like that well i hope that helped well good luck have a good day!  : ]

Answer 5

Please visit http://roborovskihamsters.webs.com/ for all the ino you'll need about how to look after and care for you Roborovski hamster.

Give our new Robo a chance to become familiar with its surroundings and remember, hamsters are nocturnal (they sleep during the day).

Is the food you are feeding him the same as they had in the pet shop? If not, go back to the pet shop you bought your Robo from and ask which hamster food they feed their hamsters and buy that particular food.

If still nothing changes in the Roborovski's behaviour, consider consulting the vet agin after about 3 more days.
