Can olive oil kill a hamster?

Olive oil is not poisonous to hamsters, but it can cause digestive problems if consumed in large quantities. Hamsters are small rodents and their digestive systems are not designed to handle large amounts of fat. Olive oil is a high-fat food, so if a hamster eats too much of it, it can develop diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. In severe cases, these symptoms can lead to dehydration and death.

If you think your hamster has eaten too much olive oil, it is important to take them to the vet right away. The vet will be able to provide treatment and supportive care to help your hamster recover.

Here are some tips to prevent your hamster from eating too much olive oil:

* Keep olive oil and other high-fat foods out of reach of your hamster.

* If you do give your hamster olive oil, only give them a small amount and monitor them closely.

* If your hamster shows any signs of digestive problems, take them to the vet right away.
