Hello,
Like any animal hamsters can be prone to diabetes. Dwarf hamsters are especially prone to this problem. Since your Little hamster may have an issue with this problem I would suggest a visit to the Vet to make sure that this is not the issue. Usually the Vet will start with a modified diet to lower the blood sugar levels and hamster have been known to even get insulin. Joan
