Answer
Hi Willie,

With such serious symptoms, your hamster should go to the vet as soon as possible.  Unfortunately, there's really nothing you can do besides keeping him comfortable until he goes to the vet.  Keep making sure he is eating and drinking, and give him some extra bedding for warmth.  I hope the little guy will be okay!

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask :)
