Yes, hamsters can eat dried fruit. Dried fruit can be a convenient and long-lasting dietary option for hamsters. However, it is important to note that dried fruit should be given to hamsters in moderation and as a treat rather than a staple food. Dried fruit is high in sugar and calories, so excessive consumption can lead to weight gain and other health issues. It is also important to choose dried fruits that are safe for hamsters, such as raisins, dried apples, and dried bananas, and avoid those that are toxic to them, such as grapes and cherries. As with any addition to a hamster’s diet, it is recommended to consult with a veterinarian to ensure that dried fruit is a suitable option for your specific hamster.
