My hamster has a cold and I fed it isatis root for 3 days; will it die?
Hamster cold treatment depends on severity. A mild cold with normal spirits and appetite just needs warmth and some pet milk replacer to boost immunity and will recover. A severe cold with low spirits and poor appetite that does not improve after isatis root needs a vet, usually antibiotics; untreated it can be life-threatening.

My hamster’s limbs looked pale in the day, then one area darkened to a purplish black at night — what’s happening?
Purplish discoloration of a hamster's scrotum may indicate scrotitis. Disinfect the area with iodine and give an appropriate antibiotic dose based on weight, keeping the hamster isolated and avoiding nuts during treatment. If it also stops eating or becomes lethargic, seek veterinary care.
