Help needed with my hamster?

my hamster, drew murty, was playing in his ball (you know the sort - blue plastic thingy) when my son accidentally kicked the ball across the room when he stood up. now drew murty is lying on his back twitching. what should I do? the vets office is closed and I'm worried. I don't have a car and I don't know the best way to move him! what should I do?
Answers:
use a piece of cardboard or somthing that you can slide under the hamster and carefully put him in his cage, he may just be stunned or knocked out. But you should look up the number for a emergency exotics or small animal vet and give them a call. they can tell you what to look for, if he has to be seen and what not... i hope the little fellas ok, hamsters are tough little critters, but not indestructible.

EDIT: after seeing the other questions you have asked i don't think you should be allowed to have a kid, much less a hamster. I hope they both aren't scarred for life. Find the hamster i new home, give the kid to someone who will take care of it and check yourself in to some kind of clinic for your insanity.
Oh not that hamster of yours again! I think it's you that needs the help not the creature. Have you considered voluntarily sectioning yourself?
if you move it, do it with something hard underneath of the hamster. if you lift him onto someting hard, do it with as little movement as possible. Maybe he's just in shock right now, but you might want to take the bus or something to the vets when it opens again, just to be sure. and remember, move it as little as possible. Good Luck
Never mind...I read your other questions. Drew Murty is one hell of magician, as he can be a turtle, a friend with aids, and a hamster!
Telephone your vet, as many surgeries leave the telephone number of an emergency vet on their answerphones. If you cannot find an emergency vet, try ringing the RSPCA, looking on line or the Yellow Pages.
its probably just stunned pick it up and put it back in its cage. my hamster love doing that. she will run on top of you feet just so she can go spinning across the room.
Question; are all your pets called Drew Murty?
ps. don't buy anymore pets. I really hope your just mental %26 do not really have cat, tortoise, %26 hamster, all of which have experinced some sort of tragedy in recent times...
If you can I would carefully pick him up and lay him on some bedding in his cage there isn't a lot more you can do for him till tomorrow morning, he could just be in shock, i hope so if he is still with you in the morning take him round to the vets for a check up, try to keep him as quiet as possible for tonight to let him get over his shock and avoid handling him for a while and avoid the ball for a couple of weeks if he does make it, i hope he is ok, if you can let me know how he is tomorrow tks
not a thing but if it dies get some tissues
if you are to sacred to move him try to if not sure then maybe if you can call a vet t9 ask what to do . oh if you hamster is okay next time you should tell your son that the hamsters out in the ball so don't kick or mess with it . i not that sure thew if you should move but if you do put cage as far as you can to the ball and move him or her gently may add more beading to comfort her more oh and sudden moves you or your son don't want to get bit epically if you don't no where it hurts.
he's in shock, put him in his cage and watch him, he could be seriously hurt.
awwwwww poor drew pick him up!
Get a life and stop trolling on petqna.com s.
