What should I do if my dwarf hamster is overweight?

Answer by  rcottis (66)

It is very common for dwarf hamsters to be overwieght if they are given too much to eat and too little exercise. They gain weight very rapidly when given too much food due to their small size. You should put your hamster in its running wheel for 1-2 hours a day and also lower its food intake.

Your dwarf hamster is probably pregnant. Separate it from other hamsters that could harm a litter of pups. Provide nesting material, food and water. Then wait for the tiny babies!

do you mean big fat hamster? wow for me when animal is overweight it will be called cute, some people love big fat small animal (usually woman or girl). Okay, if you have a hamster that overweight you can sell it (If you don't want it anymore) or you can expand you hamster home and put more toys.
