Her eyes look bright enough, her fur is good condition.. A healthy hamster will always mend on its own without any intrevention.

oh yeah, this hammie is definitely an "illegal" one. We're not allowed to have any pets that aren't under water. I keep her hidden in my closet. Luckily, my RA never comes to my room. But if she does, I still have a blanket wrapped around the outside of the cage, and clothes dangling over the lid, so my RA won't see a thing! =)
