What do you do for a hamster that got bit by another hamster and is sick and cannot eat or do anything or move and all it does is sleep?

Answer

I would take it to the vet.

Answer

If your hamster can't move you must put it in another cage right away or he/she will die. You must let them heal.

Answer

You should take it to the vet ASAP!

Answer

DO NOT use any kind of petroleum-based wound protectant on the hamster because he will lick it and it could cause him harm. Also, a wound protectant with antibiotics is NOT safe for use on a rodent of any kind. If you do and he licks it off, it could kill the bacteria in his gut that he needs to digest food. If this happens, he will not be able to process food, and he'll die.

Answer

If it is in a cage with another hamster u should take it out of that cage and put it in a new one ASAP
