I had a couple of hamsters a while back. My female syrian had to be pts at 18mths old as she had an anal prolapse
Bless her, what a shame So little, not much vet could do for that I guess! we had a hamster years ago...it was huge!!! it lived until 4 years old. we used to take it for walks in a special made to measure harness!!! lol ! That is quite an age for a hamster, I think it's usually 2 to 3 yeras for them?

I had one that only lived to be about a 1 year I had to put her down, & I cried my eyes out....I couldn't even go to work. I got made fun of, but I don't care....I was really attached to her. They don't live long at all, so I said I would not have another because of that. They love toilet paper rolls....give the hammie one with some toilet tissue still attached, & they like to rip it off....& make a nest out of it....was cute to watch.

Little hamster is going back home today, will miss her, though not the paranoia of checking her cage is properly closed (at least) twenty times a day ...

It's always sad when the tiny pets die too. I went away and left my old girl guinea pig Autumn in my sisters care, along with other guineas and rabbit of course. Autumn is still in good health, but I did worry! I left money with sis for taxi's and initial vet bill ... thankfully not needed though and little Autumn was bright a s a button when I got back
