Hamster Vets
Hamsters are actually classed as exotic animals when it comes to pets, and if you are new to hamsters you may not realise how hard it can be to find a vet because of this.
Many vets around the world will not see hamsters in their practice, whilst others may have limited experience treating them.
I am hoping this page can become a place where we can come together and share vets around the world that we know will see and treat hamsters.
Thank you to everyone who has already shared their recommendations. This list is continually growing, so if you know of a hamster-friendly vet that you'd like to add, please message me on Instagram or leave a comment under one of my videos on YouTube.
Please note: This list has been put together with help from the hamster community as a starting point when looking for a hamster-savvy vet. Cosmic Hamsters cannot be held responsible for the services or treatment provided by any veterinary practice listed.
Please check with the practice directly before booking to make sure they still treat hamsters.
