my hamster just isnt seeming her normal self. she is not alert to alot and looks like she is always tired.

is there any vitamins or supplements i cood give her?
Answers:
Is she old for a hamster? Their life span is only 2-3 years. She just might be getting old and tired. Keep her warm, make sure she has a clean cage and fresh food and water.
take her to the vet
Age? Lack of sleep? Think of logical stuff before doubting a proved diet.

I think she might be lonely.
However, in the event that I am incorrect, you can always check out this website for supplements geared towards hamsters, gerbils and mice.

good luck!
did you know all hamsters are nocturnal?
When hamsters get older, they become much less active and sleep most of the time. Depending on the age of your hamster, this is probably the case. She's probably fine, just leave her alone mostly. The same thing happened to my hamster, she started sleeping almost all the time, it started when she was about two until she passed six months later. Try not to bother her much, unless she is awake and active at the time. If she is pretty young or is showing any symptoms of illness take her to the vet, otherwise, she is fine.
