Answer 1

my hammy did that!!!!!!!!! ♥ she is just dazing and looking at something at a distance its nothing to worry about!

Answer 2

Hamsters are known for "freezing". The behavior you described is completely normal.  When the hamster "freezes" she is simply focusing her attention on something.  This could be a new or different sound or smell.  Normally hamsters freeze standing on their hind legs but other positions are also possible. They can remain in this position from anywhere for a few seconds to 3 minutes.As long as there are no other signs of sicknesses in your hamster, this is nothing to be worried about. However if she is freezing for more than 10 minutes at a time, there is cause for concern and a vet visit is a necesscity.
