Post Hamster sleeps REALLY everytime

Hello. My Syrian hamster is like 2.5 months old now. He was so active one month ago but now he really sleeps every single second unless he is eating food or drinking water. He never runs (I switched many wheels) or play with his toys. He just wakes up, eats food and goes back to sleep. I think it is because of summer, here weather is like 39-40 degree celcius at summer. I am going to buy him a cooling bed. Is there anything I can do? Or may he be sleeping due to something else? He seems healthy and well except it.

If you think it may be the heat you could open some windows and/or put a fan in the room to keep it cool. You could also put ceramic items like a mug in his cage so he has somewhere cool to go.

You could get two mugs and always keep one in the fridge to alternate them in his cage.

So I tried it. He entered the cup and seemed interesting. It will not make him sick, will he? (Cup is taken from fridge.)

Just make sure it's dry and that he can get in and out as he wants. It won't make him sick, I wouldn't do it in the winter but in this very hot weather it is fine
