"Hi! My name is Sarah. I work at Extra Care Animal Hospital; I am one of the technicians there. I am here at Petland in Pembroke Pines today to tell you a little bit about hamster care on behalf of Expert Village.com. As far as bathing and grooming goes, it is not necessary to bathe your hamster. If you find that your hamster is soiled around its rear end, you may gently clean the area with some warm water, but it is a good idea if that happens that you contact your exotic mammal veterinarian, as your hamster could have a disease known as wet tail. If you would like any more information about the animal hospital that I work at, you can go to www.extracareanimal hospital.net, and if you would like anymore information about Petland in Pembroke Pines, Florida, you can go to www.petland.com.
