Does your hamster ask to come out of her cage?
It could be that she doesn't want to come out when you take her out. Sometimes they prefer their own company and it could be down to timing.

She never really seems to want to be out of her cage or held, but seems scared of me. Is she just not that used to me? I've had her for about seven months.
