Is it bad if your hamster starts to shake after taking a bath?

Hamsters should not take baths in water, as it can be stressful and even harmful to them. Hamsters are small rodents that are naturally good at grooming themselves, and bathing them can disrupt their natural oils and cause skin problems. If your hamster is shaking after a bath, it is likely because they are cold, stressed, or both. It is important to dry your hamster off gently with a soft towel and place them in a warm environment until they are dry and calm.
