What did my hamster die from?

I woke up one morning and opened my door, and my dog came into my room and sniffed the hamster cage and then lied down on the floor, and it was really weird, so I opened it up and I poked him, and I thought he was dead because he was freezing cold and not moving, so I carried him downstairs and started getting ready to bury him, but then I noticed that his whiskers were moving a little bit, and I warmed him up with a hair dryer, and then he was alert and acting normal for another few hours, so I put him back in his cage and kept waking him up every hour or so, and then he started getting cold and sluggish again, so I tried to warm him up again, but he died.



What did he die from? It couldn't have been hypothermia because it was summer.

It's possible that he died from something like cancer or a tumor on the inside. Ours died in a similar way. It was sad.



I'm sorry for your loss.

How old was he... Hamsters only live for about 2 years. So sorry for your loss!

I'm sorry for your loss.



By you warming him up, which is wonderful that it was your instict to do that for him, really just prolonged his death.



It really could have been a variety of things. Since you don't speak of anything else except him being cold and limp, it may have just been his time to go. Hamsters don't live much more than 2 to 3 years.



If he was young, it may have been an illness that you didn't detect. Unless he was from a reputable breeder(not a petstore), who breed to perfect their genes and make strong and healthy hamsters, it could have been bad breeding.



I once had a pregnant hamster(it was many years ago, I bought her pregnant)who was likely impregnanted by a sibling, and almost all of here litter, but 3, died under a year old with no signs of illness. The other 3 lived out their life never really doing much of anything but eating and sleeping. I think their brains didn't develope properly, or something.

My daughter bought a hamster , and he also died. They only live for around two yrs. She bought anothe one, and the same thing happened, so it's nothing to do with anythibg but old age bor these little guys. They should explain this to U at the pet store, but then they wouldn't be selling too many hamsters. I hope U had a nice funeral for him.lol

Hamsters can live up to 4 years. And hamsters can get sick even if they're very healthy. ring your pet to the vet and ask... But since you do not have your hamster,the vet cannot examine him to see.. I'm srry for ur loss.
