My little chinese hamster is really unwell. Cold, breathing weirdly, not eating or drinking, not moving. I'm trying to warm her up in a sock and using gloves to cooch her.

Has anyone been in this situation before? I hate to say it, but I'm pretty sure she is dying

I just want to make her as comfortable as possible, any tips? I'm not sure what else to do apart from warm her up. I was doing this last night and she started running around a bit.

Hamsters are funny little creatures, they can go like this. They do tend to go quiet towards the end. I remember my first hamster was like that (he was Russian but we've had all types), he went all quiet and I cwtched him in to keep him warm and he let out a little squeak and died right there in my hands. It was as if he was saying bye.

Just keep her warm and see what happens.

Thank you for replying. I just wish there was some miracle thing I could do.

Thanks. I'll keep cwtching.

She died in my hands earlier today.

Thank you for your help though Swansea Stu.

Poor little thing How long have you had her, because they tend to die in their third winter.
