Why did that new hamster die?

Question

I got another hamster and it died after three days. It wasnt drinking water and it was eating a lot. My X-friend said that on day two it nibbled her so she shook the hamster and threw her against the cage!!!!! I was ******* pissed and angry at her because thats just wrong!! I talked to her parents and everything and trying to take care of that situation.Anyways the next day the hamster slowly died and blood came out of her ears and eyes. Was it because she wasnt drinking? or because of the throw? Anyhowz that girl is not my friend anymore and our parents are at war. We are trying to figure out if the reason it died was because it wasnt drinking and it was eating too much, or because that ***** threw her and shaked her. IF the hamster died because that ***** shook her, wouldn't it have died right away?? Im mad and sad. I keep crying because I really luved the hamster. well i still have my other hamster whom ive had for 3 and a half years

Answer 1

hamsters are like any other rodent. thye have a fragile bone structure. if the hamster was shaken then that was most likely the cause. it may not have died right away because or the injury being to an organ which caused internal bleeding and not a spinal or cranial fracture. sorry that i'm being so blunt but i can't really phrase it any other way.
