The piggies can't catch colds (viruses) but they can catch infections caused by bacteria - these often cause coughs and runny noses so it's hard to tell which is which. Best keep handling to a minimum.
Thanks..guess they wont be getting any cuddles for a few days then :'( (don't worry, they're still gunna have floor/run time)

I read another thread about this... it seems if you have a bad cold you should keep away from your piggies AND your hamsters, Jane.
Sorry... :-\
