Smallest E-collar Ever

Today we had to improvise a bit. A female, 2-year-old hamster who weighed ONE OUNCE (aw!) named Ziggy came in with an injured foot, and Dr. Kirchhoffer, always the trooper, said she would do foot surgery. This is Ziggy in recovery wearing the smallest e-collar in the world. It's made out of a paper cup and medical tape.We are not hamster specialists. We recommend regular veterinary care at a vet that specializes in pocket pets, but we were very happy we could help out little Ziggy today.
