Question
My sister's hamster has been diagnosed with pneumonia. The hamster is on a course of anti-biotics.The hamster hasn't been able to sleep and is literally gasping for air.Are there any remedies to help his recovery? Will any differences have to be made in bedding, food etc? Do you know any good websites for hamster health care?

Answer
Hi Bruce, I am so sorry for the little hamster!  Please go to our rat Expert , they may be able to help.
Again, I wish I could help.....
