What if a pudding hamster is too fat and is starved for a day?
Do not starve a fat pudding hamster to lose weight; it harms the gut and causes vomiting, diarrhea, poor appetite, and shorter life. Instead cut daily food to 80%, avoid fatty foods like mealworms and sunflower seeds, then to 60 to 70% after adjustment. Use a bigger cage or out-of-cage time for exercise.

What happens if a dog is often left hungry?
