Answer 1

Turn off whatever AC you may have on by her first of all, then keep her as warm and comfortable as you can. Then find any all-night emergency vet clinic you possibly can. Also look at the food she ate, check her stoole and retrace her steps, that may help you diagnose what's wrong with her.

Answer 2

Probably wet tail. Find a 24 hour vet. If you can't go in the morning asap! Good Luck with your hamster!

Answer 4

Answer 5

ok - listen

She is sick and the only thing you can do is this

put a water bowl and food (her favourites) right infront of her. place her in a warm place with it, and leave her alone.

If she is in  pain, touching her will only make it worse. Let the little critter be, and hopefully, until you can take her to the vet, she will be alright. If not, let her die in peace.

Answer 6

FIND AN EMERGENCY ANIMAL CLINIC

In the mean time keep her warm and find out if she got into anything poisonous. Comfort her and tell her that it's okay. She will need to hear a good tone in your voice.
