If you mean without a room mate, it is more then not cruel. Actually, it would be slightly cruel to put 2 hamsters together, if one or both isn't young. Unless you have a huge cage.
If you mean abandoning a hamster, yes. For hamsters had been domesticated to humans for many, many, many generations and aren't used to being back in the wild again. They can't get food or water by themselves, either. Not when they're locked in a cage, THAT'S for sure! Not just for Russian hamsters, all hamsters! Not just for that other answer, but both answers.

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.

Its cruel to the hamster to keep him alive if he is very ill.
