my hamster exploded

ive been crying in my room for 2 hours now. I was making some salad dressing in the kitchen with my pet hamster manny (I let him roam around). My sister and her friends were also in there doing something. I spilled a bottle of vinegar, so I left to get a towel and when i came back manny was drinking it. I didnt think anything of it so I let him help me clean it up. all of the sudden manny starts acting really weird. hes normally very full of energy but he was just sitting still. Everyone gathered around him to try to figure out what was wrong. suddenly we hear a fizzling noise coming from inside manny and he started expanding. he let out a final squeak and bursted. bubbles and blood went everywhere. my sister and her friends started screaming and crying. I ran and got my dad and he cleaned it up. we looked in the pantry and apparently manny got into the baking soda and ate abunch of it. I think im traumatized now

Animals know better NOT to eat sodium bicarbonate & 5% acetic acid.
They'd be repelled by the taste and smell.

many small dog breeds cannot smell or taste either until it is too late.

no, but it wouldn't explode. it would create a caustic soda which destroys the stomach lining and they'd vomit it up along with the volcano foam, most likely dying since that's how hamsters are.
