My guinea pig’s nose is wet inside — could it have a cold?
A moist nose alone is usually normal in guinea pigs, but check the cage for dust that irritates the airways. If sneezing, labored breathing, or lethargy appear, it's likely a cold — stabilize the temperature and give an isatis-root (banlangen) herbal remedy for three days.
My guinea pig’s nose is wet inside — could it be a cold?

I’m not sure if my hamster is male or female — there’s a lump behind its bottom that looks like a tumor, but it’s only on one side
From the photo, your hamster is most likely male and the swelling is due to being in heat, when the testicles enlarge and the rear appears red and swollen. Intact males also become more active, emit a distinctive odor, and mark their surroundings to attract females. If you don't plan to breed, keep males and females in separate cages.
