Well, the best thing you could do is take it to a veterinarian. But signs of a hamster dying are a decline in energy and lethargy mostly. They may also begin to be less friendly. How old is the hamster? If it's old, it may be old age. Another thing to check up on is if it's sick. Hamsters are usually robust but if they get sick, they die really quickly. You need to find the problem. Depending on the problem, certain measures have to be taken. But your best bet would be to go to a veterinarian. If you want to at least try to help her yourself first, you should probably go to hamsterific.com. They have all the information on hamster life spans, illnesses and how to treat them. I hope your hamster gets better... My prayers are with you.

Nothing, if its going to die, theres not much you can do with a hamster. Maybe its just in a bad mood, ive had hamsters that start out nice then turn out mean, so maybe his personality has changed, or he could have hurt himself somehow.

Usually when a hamster dies, it just goes to sleep and never wakes up. Your hamster might be sick. I would take him to a vet.
