If you want to give any other vegetables not on the list above to your hamster, check with your Veterinarian first.


Also make sure you give these vegetables in small amounts. Don’t give him big pieces. Cut the veggies in smaller pieces and then feed it to your hamster.


You can also give your hamster small amounts of pumpkin pure, but I would check with your Veterinarian before giving him raw pumpkin.
