SOMEONE (won't reveal identity) WROTE AT THE WEB: I purchased a potty corner for her and put hamster litter into in. she eats it and i came home today and there was a little brown spot in it it looked like she may have thrown up from eating it. im not too sure. anyone no hwy she does this? is it safe? how can i stop her?
A web vet wrote:"Yes. Hamsters have a different digestive system than humans. Hamsters produce two types of excrement — one that's partially digested containing lots of nutrients, and one that's just garbage. Hamsters practice coprophagy, eating the nutrient-filled excrement to get the nutrients from it and digest it fully."
HOWEVER, my friend Dr. Jill(She is a Vet) differs:"rabbits and guinea pigs only have night pellet eating.... just confirmed" . Please feel free to see Dr. Jill's comments at: http://petgazer.blogspot.com/
