A hamster cold can be given isatis root granules, quinolone antibiotics, or pet cold medicine as supportive care, but warmth is also important. Generally, dab a little honey on isatis root granules and feed with tweezers, 1 grain 3 times a day. If the cold is severe and antibiotics are needed, consult a vet and control the dose, since too much at once can poison and kill the hamster. Mild colds can be treated with medication, while severe ones need an exotic-pet clinic. Daily, give some pet milk replacer or energy water to boost immunity.
