Should i put vitamins in my hamsters water I am going to get him in a couple of hours2007-11-24 22:15:05Answers:

Do not ever put vitamins in pet water. You run the risk of making it taste bitter, and your pet may stop drinking water entirely and become ill because it doesn't like the taste. A regular mixed grain diet will provide a balanced diet for your hamster, especially if you mix in some vegetables and fruits. Try giving your hamster some rice krispies or cheerios as a special snack.

A lot of times they won't like the taste, a little fresh spinach sometimes is super healthy for them. Use only organic, and wash it.

there is absolutly no need. A hamster commercial mix of nuts, grain and cereal will contain the required amount of the vitamins and minerals your hamster needs. To keep it in extra tip top condition introduce slowly to begin with some small pieces of fresh fruit and veg. But avoid tomatoes and citrus fruit as it is poisonous, and never feed it junk like crisps and chocolate, this will also make it extremly ill.

if you give your hamsters a balanced diet and a wheel, they should stay healthy without the vitamins.

if you do decide to put vitamins in the hamsters water, make sure they're not flavored - once a hamster gets used to the plain tasting water, they most likely won't like the vitamins taste.

No, you don't have to. The only time I did was while my hamster was pregnant and needed the extra strength while raising 13 babies.
