Soooo I have my first hamster roborovski and I had to got to a trip and i took him with me, long stroy short he could stay in the same room as me and in that room came a wild cat (not a big one just a regular cat but its wild) and when i came in the room cat run out, his cage was at place and "everything was fine" exept him laying down on a wheel and not moving. He moved really fast and was really close to the ground, he would react to his fav treat, and now he is in his house but its late and its is his awake time. What shoukd i you do

He has obviously had a scare. His instinct would be to play dead, as a cat would be a predator to him. Just leave him be and leave him in the quiet for a while. I am sure he is okay. Is there anyway the cats claws could of got through the cage? I would leave him for a few hours, then maybe check on him, check him over for any scratches. Can the cat get back in?

I'm having a bit of trouble deciphering your message. From what I'm gathering, this just sounds like a normal hamster thing. Hamsters leave scent trails via their bellies so staying close to the ground makes sense. He probably didn't even notice there was a cat tbh.

Please try to keep this cat out, not only for your ham, but for your own safety. Feral cats can have fleas, parasites, or even rabies, and could be a danger to you and any pets. Please try to secure the door or window so everyone stays safe xxx
