We all love to treat our furry friends with delicious nibbles & while most foods provide beneficial nutrients for your pet, some can cause health problems for specific breeds. Dwarf hamsters should not consume fruits with high sugar content because it can lead to health issues such as diabetes and obesity. These small pets have a high risk for diabetes, particularly the Dwarf Hybrid and Chinese hamsters, and sugary fruits can exacerbate this condition. Additionally, their digestive systems are not suited to handle high levels of sugar, which can cause diarrhoea and other digestive problems. Fruit should only be fed to dwarfs once every two weeks. Portion size also is key - around half the size of the hamsters ear. At Treats 4 Squeaks, all treats are natural and sourced from UK farmers, with no artificial additives, flavours, sugars or honey, to help ensure your cute companions stay fit & well, with no fruit in sight!
