    1. Domestic hamsters do not carry rabies, so rabies will not appear after being bitten.

    2. After being bitten, you should immediately rinse with water, squeeze out the dirty blood, and then apply alcohol or iodine to the wound.

    3. In the case of LZ, it means that the wound is actually very shallow, so it is recommended that LZ should do disinfection and anti-inflammatory work first to prevent wound infection.

    4. Like the owners of the flower and bird market or pet store, it is estimated that they will be bitten by hamsters several times a day, and they will be fine, so rest assured, not to mention that LZ is a domestic hamster, which carries fewer germs.

    5. If you are really worried, you have to go to the hospital for rabies injection.

    If you have a question, hope.

    Downstairs. Squeeze the blood hard?!! You learned it from there. If there are toxins, aren't you promoting blood circulation!? The best thing to do is to scrub it with soap right away, and if you think there's something wrong with that mouse, it's best to get a rabies shot.
