Expert Answer

It is uncertain whether a hamster can survive 2 days of pseudo-hibernation. Pseudo-hibernation is abnormal, usually caused by the environment being too cold or too hot; if the hamster is weak and gets no timely human help, it may die.

Normally, if pseudo-hibernation is found within 3 hours, you can adjust the temperature in time and feed some glucose, and the hamster will usually wake after a while. If it has not woken after more than 12 hours, it is already fairly dangerous and needs prompt veterinary care.
