can i feed my hamster grape tomatos or kiwi?

Question

or will he get sick?

Answer 1

I checked out this list of foods that are safe for hamsters:
http://www.petwebsite.com/fruit.htm

Kiwi fruit is on the list, but tomatoes are not on the list. This would lead me to believe that, for hamsters, tomatoes are too acidic, and they would be too hard on a hamster's stomach. I would err on the side of caution and not feed your hamster tomatoes until you've researched their safety for hamsters.

I have pet rats and some schools of thought suggest that tomatoes are too acidic for their stomachs.

i don't know about tomatoes but i fed mine grapes and kiwi bu only as treats don't give them a lot and make sure you take out any uneaten food before 24 hours. They also like carrots and cabbage

Answer 3

i know for sure he cant eat tomatoes but he acn eat Apple, asparagus, banana, broccoli, calarese, cantaloupe, carrots, cauliflower leaves and stalk, celery, chard, chestnuts, chicory, corn on the cob, courettes, cress, cucumber, grapes, green beans, kale, marrow, parsley, pear, peas, strawberries, sweet corn, water chestnuts, watermelon. Also egg, bread, crickets, mealworms, and raisins are good healthy treats. just dont feed them to him too often

Answer 4

Yeah for sure, it is part of their normal diet. A hamster can never have to much fruit.

Answer 5

yeah of course you can...well dnt force feed him or anything but try him with loads of vegies or fruits, anything really. he wont get sick just as long as you'd be able to find it in the wild, after all, thats where their food would have come from.
