Perhaps you might not kill it, but you might shorten its life, by stressing it too much.

I understand that hamsters get stressed out by loud noises and abrupt movements and their little hearts start pumping wildly.

But they love to be cuddled, so go ahead and play with it in a gently way...it will let you know when it has played enough ...when it gets impatient.

What if your hamster is laying lethargic and is shaking and making little squeaking sounds what is wrong?

There could be many things wrong. Normally when a hamster is ill it will carry on as normal. If it won't move around much its likely the hamster has something wrong with its stomach or intestines or any other organ. Its best to take the hamster to the vets as it could be in great pain. Its cruel to the hamster to keep him alive if he is very ill.
