My hamster keeps shivering and won't get up is he ok?
Heat Stroke (or Sleeper's Disease as it is sometimes known) occurs when the temperature is too high. The hamster lies flat on the cage floor, is limp and may tremble when touched. Often the hamster will show some movement if you blow on it but if this does not revive it, the hamster should be placed in cooler area and allowed to gradually cool down. If the hamster shows no improvement within a few moments it may be necessary to gently spray the hamster with a fine mist of cool water. If the hamster still shows no improvement within a few moments urgent veterinary advice should be sought. A hamster should never be placed near a window or left in a car on a warm day as these are the most common cause heat stroke. A hamster suffering from heat stroke may also become dehydrated

Make sure your feeding the hamster right and giving it water everyday if your really unsure what to do then take your hamster to someone that knows them really well eg: vets and other places dont just let your hamster sit there in pain, also try stroking your hamster that might work but stroke it very gently and try holding it and look at it's body for any thing bad or anything strange.

Well, after taking your hamster straight to the vets, make sure he/she eats and drinks edible stuff with moisture, like peas or pear as that worked with my hamster.
