No that can get them sick. If you want them clean because they are dirty then use a damp wash clothe. If it is because it is stinky you can give your hammie a few pinches of dry oatmeal each day. I hope I was of help. I've had over 150 dwarf hamsters so I know. Good luck with your little hammie! If you have any more questions feel free to email me at arab_luver_101@yahoo.com.

Don't ever give a hamster a bath. There's no reason to and you're only going to stress it out. If the hamster smells, it's probably because the cage is dirty, which is your fault.

You shouldn't give a dwarf hamster a bath. Hamsters are self-grooming, but if you insist, then you can use Chinchilla bath sand.

i don't recommend giving them a bath. they HATE water besides drinking water. but, for a GREAT substitute, there's something called "clean critter wipes" they are kinda like baby wipes, except specially made for hamsters. all you do is wipe them down and they won't stink or turn all dirty. it makes their fur all shiny and soft! they sell it at petsmart.
