So cute. But would you do an MRI on a hamster? They only live a couple years anyway! xD

How often would a hamster need an MRI?

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I suspect about the same rate as any creature that has access to that level of health care.

That hamster has better health coverage than I do.

Sorry to hear about your Secretary of Health.

Why, what have you heard? Did the brain worm finally win?

Unfortunately the poor little guy starved to death.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

No, I'm sorry to keep hearing RFK is still alive.

[–] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 12 points 1 month ago

Damn, this hamster is getting better healthcare than me

[–] Davel23@fedia.io 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Pointless nitpick, but that's a CAT scan, not MRI.

[–] marighost@piefed.social 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Looks like a hamster to me, not a cat.

Yup

Mice MRI have a small opening cuz of magnets (small animal MRI machines are so fucking cool, some of them incorporate PET)

I don't know, does it beat the hedgehog?

Im sorry, but hamster life expectancy is like 3 years tops. I dont need to know if he has a brain tumor if hes just gonna die of unpreventable causes 6 months later

[–] Themosthighstrange@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Over here we can't afford teeth yet some one has enough money to get an MRI for a fucking hamster

[–] DrFistington@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Lol, people can't afford the 3500 to get an MRI and that ballers are just handing that shit out to rodents

I would totally smoke that hamster

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I thought the MRI looked like an easy-bake for gordititas
