So, I have a dwarf hamster (Daisy). Daisy was in her hamster ball and somehow the top came off and she escaped. Before anyone realized what had happened, Daisy stumbled upon an old mouse trap (the gluey kind) under the radiator in the bedroom. Luckily, the trap was old and so the glue wasn't as good as it used to be, but she still got stuck pretty good on there. In her panic, she started chewing at her own fur to get herself off.
We discovered her down there and it didn't take much to get her off the trap, but now my poor little Daisy has a fairly sizeable wound on her neck where she was gnawing at the fur. It didn't seem to be bleeding, or at least, it wasn't bleeding enough to get on me, but I'm concerned that this is going to become infected or whatever...
How sensitive is this situation? Does anyone have experience with these kinds of things? I don't have the money to take her to a vet, but is there a product I can buy that can help her out?
