this is completely normal, especially if he/she is new. They are in a new area with a lot of new scents so they are curious and about it. it is like the same reason a dog would sniff a bed before sitting in it. they are just "checking it out"

How do you trap a hamster?

to catch a lost hamster, you don't need a hamster trap. You can just get a bucket, put some strong-smelling food inside that fills at least a quatre of the bucket. Place a ramp or a ladder of some sort so that the hamster will smell the food, climb up the ramp/ladder, and will fall in but can't get out again. This won't hurt the little hamster at all.

Can you put your mouse in a hamster cage?

Not really, they won't try to kill each other. I tried it because I had a mouse and a hamster but only one cage. I figured why not? Well, they didn't try to kill each other. It's just that the hamster, Nibbles, keeps stealing Lionel's (mouse) place. Like when Lionel was on the wheel, Nibbles tried to steal his place. Which lead to fighting. So it's alright if you put them together in a cage. Just remember to monitor them so the hamster doesn't try anything funny. But yeah, you can put a mouse in a hamster cage.
