Default Re: My hamster is sleeping while standing

Did you give him any bedding to make a nest with?

To me it looks like he's on a thin layer of wood shavings but its hard to tell.

I'd put a big heap of torn into strips plain white (unscented) toilet paper near his house so he can make a nest.

He's probably upset about the cage clean and they do sometimes sleep in odd places when unsettled. I'd give him some treats and plenty of paperbased bedding so he can burrow if he wants to.
