Yes, usually they can. In extreme cold they will go into hibernation. This is where the hamster stores up food and stays asleep until the cold period is over. If a hamster goes into hibernation it is very important not to try to wake them up.

Why are raccoons and skunks not true hibernators?

Why does your hamster sleep so much?

Hamsters will eat what ever you give it so if you give it a whole lot of food it will eat it all most likely.so if your hamster seems overweight try giving it a little less food or ask a local pet shop ( Petco,Pet Smart, etc.)Hmmm, well I have a answer to that 1. Your hamster may be storing food somewhere you can't see and so well that is kind off bad because hoarding is the name of what your hamster may be doing what I did was I took the food bowl out for a hour and put it back it if this isn't your answer then 2. Gif your hamster looks normal say not it might weight less and your hamster might be eating more to gain weight and that's completely normal ( except for the underweight part, if your hamster looks underweight then you can use a food weighter to see how much it weighs ) well I hope this helps - darkskygamerr

Should your hamster sleep in the same room as you?

If you don't mind the possibility of the hamster waking you up by running on its wheel or doing other activities during the night you should be fine. On the other hand if you are a light sleeper and need sleep you might not want to do this. Yes though, it is probably fine to let your hamster sleep in the same room as you.
