My hamster is recovering from torpor: Will she be okay now or is there anything else I need to do?
I went upstairs and saw my hamster lying on one of her levels where she doesn't usually sleep. When I couldn't see her breathing I panicked so I gently touched her and realised she was cold, but not rigid. When I picked her up I saw her move slightly, so I suddenly thought about torpor and held her close to me. She slowly started to come around. I quickly cleaned out her old sawdust and put a new thin layer on the bottom of her cage, then under that I put my lizards heat mat. I just checked her and she's moving around more and eating. Will she be okay now?
