Thank you Daisy and Spud..
I was going to go to petco so they would refund the money on Snowey, and tell them how horrible my experience was ...and bring him back to bury him..but I don't know if I even have the strength and courage to do that now...
Me and my mom are about to go get some bleach to sanitize everything...I was wondering how long my wooden platform, and coconut, and the couple of wooden toys should be in the oven, and on what heat?
How strong should the bleach solution be too for the wheel, pvc pipes, hideouts, and the tank...? I want to get everything on a clean note for the next hammy...
He looked so sweet after he had passed, his eyes closed..like he'd just fallen asleep...I am having tears while writing this.. TvT
I would do 1 part bleach to 9 parts water and leave it on the non-porous things for at least ten minutes before rinsing thoroughly.
The porous things like wooden toys are a bit more tricky. I don't tend to use the oven for cleaning myself so hopefully someone else can advise on that. The coconut I would boil in a pan of water for a few minutes at a rolling boil, as it's robust enough to hold up. Some wooden toys can fall apart in water though. Depending on how expensive the toys and platform were, it may be easier to throw them away and get new ones just in case.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Just know you did everything you could to give Snowey the best chance possible and we're all here for you!
As for your wood products, I would bake them in the oven for 30 mins at 200 degrees F to get them cleaned.
