Exclamation Help

On evening food round I checked on Morgan and she was cold and curled over

It got very cold today.

We're currently warming her up on a hot water bottle and although she's opened her eyes I can't get any response from her

Any help? Or know how long it'll be if it's hibination?

Are you sure she's gone? I recall ErinAnimal on YouTube saying Hamsters go in to something called torpo correct me if I'm wrong, it's basically where when them are cold they go into hibernation to warm themselves up and rewake when they are. If you are sure she has gone I'm so sorry for your loss xx

I'm so sorry to hear that!
Before you found her, when was the last time you saw her/checked on her?
How cold did it get today? How old was she?

I'd seen her the day before running about as normal.
Room has a special themsostat that I leave in there that prevents room temperature dropping below 14 degrees.

My mum (some what of a ham expert) reckons that it was heart failure.

My other 4 babs are all ok.
