Precautions for hamster season change

First, the temperature rises, how to replace the mat materials?

When the weather gets warmer, many pet owners will quickly change the hamster pad from paper cotton or cotton to sawdust, which is not so warm. Actually, pet owners don't have to be in such a hurry. They can change the mat from five centimeters to three centimeters, and then give some cotton at will. In this way, the hamster can come out and move by itself when it is hot, and return to its warm nest when it is cold. If the temperature rises, the pet owner will replace all the warm pads of the hamster, which will easily lead to the hamster catching cold. After all, the temperature may also drop.

Second, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and hamsters are most likely to catch a cold.

If the temperature difference between day and night is large in a day, the owner should pay attention to keep the hamster warm, otherwise it is likely to catch a cold. When the temperature and humidity change greatly, it is normal for hamsters to sleep in urine sand during the day, and it is not necessary to remove too much padding, because hamsters also need to keep warm at night.

If hamsters catch a cold because of a cold, they should also be treated in time. You can give it some maternal love. If hamsters have symptoms of diarrhea, you can also cook apples before giving them, which can slightly alleviate the diarrhea problem. However, if hamsters have severe diarrhea, they still need to go to the hospital immediately to avoid causing more serious problems.

Third, when to replace summer supplies?

It won't really get hot until Tomb-Sweeping Day in most areas, so pet owners can gradually replace hamsters with summer products in late April, such as porcelain nests, ice mats and sawdust. Some pet owners like to use tofu cat litter for hamsters, but in fact, this cat litter is easily crushed, which will lead to dust and bacteria, so pet owners still try to use hamster-specific feeding products.

Seasonal changes are also a high incidence of illness in hamsters, so the owner must pay special attention, especially in spring and autumn, and don't change the padding in a hurry, otherwise hamsters will easily catch a cold. The owner should also know enough about the hamster's life habits to take better care of it.
