Hamsters cannot eat chocolate. Chocolate contains a lot of sugar. Eating too much chocolate at one time may cause hamster poisoning or even death. The chocolate residue will also remain in the hamster's cheek pouches, which can easily cause bacterial infection and cause inflammation and illness in the hamster. The caffeine and theobromine contained in chocolate can also stimulate the hamster's heart muscle, causing symptoms such as abnormal excitement in the hamster.
