Hamsters hiss or make a high pitched screaming noise when they are scared or highly distressed. Say for instance if you are squeezing it too tightly or are handling it too much. If this is the case then it is best to leave the hamster for a couple of days in a quiet room to settle and get used to the smells and sounds of the home.
It is not advisable under any circumstance to handle a hamster until it is used to your voice and your smell.

Should you buy your hamster a companion since it is lonely?
You should not buy your hamster a companion.If your hamster is a dwarf hamster then you shouldn't because they weren't raised together and they may tend to fight. If they were raised together then it wouldn't be a problem. If you own a teddy bear hamster also known as the Syrian hamster you wouldn't be able to have a companion in the cage with them even if they were raised together. Once your Teddy Bear hamster has mated then you should remove the male hamster because he may eat the young. Especially after the mother has given birth you should keep the father separate or any other male hamster because as soon as she has given birth she goes into heat again and they will mate again and in a few days she will give birth again. Teddy Bear hamsters are sometimes known for eating their young. If your hamster has young then once they are weined from their mother's milk then you should remove them from the cage because she may eat her young.

Dwarf hamsters are also more independent and may be easier for a young teenager to care for. However, both animals can make great pets with proper care and attention.

How long to the baby hamster have to be with the mommy?
Usually, with the more common breeds (syrian, russian dwarf, chinese dwarf, roborovski etc.) it will be about three weeks but might be ready a bit earlier, don't leave it any longer than this though as all breeds of hamster come into season very quickly and if they get the chance to breed young, they will and there could be a lot wrong wth the babies and the mother hamster will probably die or eat her babies, so males and females must be seperated.
