Hamster toys
You can make your own hamster toys or buy some readymade ones that are on the market in petstores. Homemade toys that your hamster will enjoy include :
- swinging toilet tube rolls - dangle these and watch your little hamster swing off their new toy like Tarzan (or Jane)
- if you are fortunate enough to have an apple tree in the backyard, you can snap off a branch and put it in your hamster cage - your hamster will enjoy using it as a climbing frame and gnawing on the branch - great to keep those incisor teeth in shape!
- use a shorter branch from the apple tree and make a trapeze and watch your hamster swing off it!
- empty egg cartons make lovely nesting boxes for dwarf hamsters - just cut holes on either side and watch your hamsters burrow into them - great hamster toy!

Dog with wet patches in bed after sleeping
Our dog (6yo female neutered Lab mix) Daisy will sleep in our bed sometimes for a little while and then she will sleep in her crate or around the house. For the last two nights we have had thunder so she slept with us the whole night. We noticed this morning that she was cleaning herself in her back section a lot and then noticed that she had been laying in a big wet spot. This wet spot was cold and moist and soaked through a comforter, another blanket, top sheet, onto the regular sheet. On the bottom sheet it was in the shape of three circles. It didn't smell and she layed there without a problem. Do you think it was urine? If so why would she be laying in it? We also have a 5 week old baby and want to know if this could stem from that? We have noticed several other times way before the baby moist smaller moist spots on our bed, chair, or carpet where she had cleaned herself. Is this normal and how can we help our dog? We want to make sure she is not sick. We appreciate your response because we can not talk to our vet until tomorrow. Thank you!! - Click
