Pet's info: Small Animal | Hamster | Female | unspayed
Hi. I am a new hamster owner and I had left a stick treat hanging from the cage overnight. When I had got up in the morning, 70% of the treat was gone. She had eaten it. Will something bad happen to my hamster? Will she become sick?

Likely she will be fine. Treats for small rodents are generally safe but may be high calorie. You may wait 48 hours before offering more treats. I hope this helps and congratulations on adding Leah to your family.
