Tigg There are no vaccinations for hamsters. They don't need shots.
Joleen Cohen They do not actually need vaccinations since they are usually indoors and are fairly healthy. I would avoid getting close to them if you catch a cold or something just so they won't catch it from you and keep their cage as clean as possible ...
