| Question about Pets:Why is my hamster losing fur on its back toward its tail? |
No it doesn't mean he's going to die. My hammy is having the same problem, he isn't scratching but has lost fur on his back. He has been under treatment for suspected mites, but the fur isn't growing back very quickly.
Other than this he is eating and behaving normally and the vet said that the mite problem could be worse due to his age. I think it will be a good idea for your hammy to visit the vet and it can have a bit of an MOT as well. The vet will check for any underlying problems that may cause health issues.
Good luck, I'm sure he'll be fine.
