They shouldn't be allowed in the room the hamster is in but that is only my opinion of course.
Hamsters are prey animals and cats are hunters, no matter how domesticated they are, the instinct will always be there.

Great advice here! Cats and any other predatory animal(including but not limited to ferrets and dogs) should definitely not be allowed in the same room as a hamster or any other prey animal for that matter. It doesn't always cause observable stress but that does not mean it isn't causing problems - better safe than sorry anyways with a nice secure door between these sorts of pets at all times
