A hamster might bite if it is afraid. If it is agitated it might roll over and make a defensive stance - it is best to leave the hamster alone for a bit after this. Sometimes, if a hamster is in a bad mood, it may grind its teeth.

.

If your hamster does any of these, just leave it in the cage for a bit. Don't try punishing it nor bribing it.
