Yes they can so don't leave an open window when it is cold my friend did because she didn't know then she left the house and her hamster became VERY VERY sick and died a few days later.Small animals are hard to cure so if a hamster does get sick it has to go to the doctor ASAP!Or else,If the cold is very bad or the hamster goes to the vet too late it will not survive.
