    Don't worry! Hamsters are not the same as mice. There's no such scary virus on your body!

    Hamsters are almost all domestic, and carrying the virus will not happen......If it was bitten, it didn't bleed anyway. It proves that the bite is not deep! Even if there is a virus, you can't get in!

    I've tried to be bitten by a hamster before......It hurts, and I've bled out. But it's fine. An aunt I know, who also had hamsters at home, was bleeding from a hamster.

    I was afraid to die, so I went for an injection and got more than 700 ......I was also bitten, but I didn't get an injection, and I lived well. Hamsters bite you just curious. Don't put your fingertips at them.

    If you don't have a place to bite, you can't bite it!

    And oh! Don't throw away the rats just because ......they're curious to bite youThey are not capable of surviving in the wild. Be kind to rats!

    The rat that bit me is very, very well-behaved now, the one I hurt the most! Love them with affection, and they won't bite you! My cousin's family still licks people's hands violently!

    Super cute!!

    Make your own! Non-replication. Hope!!

    Happiness to you and your rats!

    And also! Don't plagiarize!

    It should be fine, raising rats and rats should be clear about the temperament of rats and mice, you don't like sticky people you often catch to play will definitely be bitten, buy a bottle of medical alcohol or hydrogen peroxide at home, be bitten by rats and rats immediately clean the wound and disinfect it, this is safer and more convenient, no need to say to inject at every turn, that is not a rat to say so, not rats generally do not use, hamsters are a relatively clean pet.

    It's basically fine, if the onset will be 3-15 days, it will be in 3 days, and the plague will be saved.

    If you really don't feel at ease, go for an injection. After all, hamsters have a record of spreading plague.

    It's okay, hamsters are not mice, hamsters don't carry any diseases, believe me, all the bacteria on the hamster don't add up to as many bacteria as you have on your hands... So strictly speaking, domestic hamsters are actually cleaner than people. The chance that a human disease can be transmitted to a hamster and a hamster is almost zero.

    You can go to the hamster bar to see the knowledge, everyone in it has been bitten and bloody. Also, have Nai's hamsters been caged? Hamsters live alone, and the two of them will fight and die together.

    It's okay, my family's fierceness. Until the bite bleeds several times, it is enough to wash your hands. If something really happens, I'll die several times. Peace.

    1.Wash the wound.

    There is no sterile environment in the mouth, and there may be a large number of arubber-clearing bacteria that can enter the hamster wound after being bitten. If left untreated, bacteria may enter the bloodstream and cause bacteremia.

    If the amount of bacteria is large, toxins can be released at the same time, causing toxemia, and in severe cases, it can cause sepsis, septic shock and other serious diseases. Even bacteria multiply at the wound site, which can lead to infection, abscess, cellulitis, etc. Therefore, rinsing the wound thoroughly in the first place can reduce the risk of bending infection.

    Rinse the wound with disinfectant for more than 15 minutes, if there is no disinfectant water, rinse with water and soapy water, give a certain pressure and a certain angle, be sure to flush out all the saliva of the animal from the wound, and flush out other dirty things in the wound;

    2.Disinfect the wound.

    After cleaning the wound, the wound should also be disinfected with iodophor to prevent infection;

    3.Tetanus prevention.

    Pay attention to the healing of the wound, and if the wound is red, swollen and painful, be sure to go to the hospital in time**. There is also a risk of tetanus if there is an infected wound or a deep wound, because the animal may have Clostridium tetani in the mouth, so for the wound there is a deep wound, and there is already a secondary infection, tetanus prophylaxis is required.

    Although hamsters are mammals, there have been no cases of rabies transmission in hamsters, and no cases of hamster infection have been found, so there are no cases of hamster bites or bleeding in the general guidelines for answering and defeating, but wound infections must be prevented.

    While raising hamsters, bites are unavoidable. Many people are scared after being bitten, worrying about whether there will be bacteria or whether they need injections. So, what's the right thing to do to get bitten by a hamster?

    Causes of hamster bites.

    Unfamiliar with the owner, frightened or disturbed, mistaken for food, sick, etc.

    Bitten processing. 1. No wounds: If the hamster only gnaws and does not really bite the skin, then there is no need for any treatment.

    2. Bleeding: If you are bitten and bleed, first squeeze out some blood, and then wash it with soapy water.

    How to avoid being bitten.

    Try not to disturb the hamster while it is sleeping; It is best to wash your hands before contact. You can slowly feed the hamster by hand and get close to the hamster.

    If you are already a hamster that is very close to the owner or has always been very close, and suddenly one day you start to bite the owner, you need to pay attention to check the physical condition of the hamster, and generally the hamster will start to bite if it is sick and uncomfortable.

    Other. Many people will ask hamsters if they have bacteria or viruses or something like that. However, please use basic common sense to think that no matter whether it is **, there will be bacteria and viruses.

    Generally, domestic hamsters do not have pathogenic germs on them, unless the domestic environment is also poor. At present, there is no data and experiments to prove that hamsters carry rabies virus.

    Try to stay calm when bitten and try not to reflexively throw the hamster out because of scare or pain. This can cause the hamster to fall or become frightened, making it harder to get close to them later.

    Except in the case of the bite area being swollen and renting a reed, there is no need for any injections.

    1.Rabies vaccination is not required for a hamster bite, but the wound site needs to be rinsed and disinfected.

    Although hamsters are mammals, they can theoretically be infected with rabies and may also be infected with rabies, but so far there have been no reports of rabies transmission in hamsters and cases of rabies infection in hamsters, so the current international guidelines consider that rabies vaccination is not required for hamster bites.

    2.However, because there may be a large number of bacteria in the animal's mouth, once the bite needs to be fully rinsed the wound, the wound can be rinsed with soapy water, tap water, mineral water, water, etc. for more than 15 minutes, and the animal saliva is flushed out of the wound, and then iodine wine and alcohol are used for disinfection to prevent bacterial infection.

    At the same time, observe the wound, if you find that the wound is obviously painful, red and swollen, you need to go to the hospital for treatment, and there is a possibility of bacterial infection.

    3.In addition, tetanus should be prevented if the wound is severe, and tetanus vaccine or tetanus immune globulin may be given, although rabies vaccine or rabies immune globulin is usually not necessary.

    Any serious animal bite wound needs to be evaluated for rabies, and rabies vaccination is not required after being bitten by a domestic animal such as a hamster or rabbit unless there is a special reason.
