Should I get my dwarf hamster another playmate?

Her sister died just now! The cage is too big for her alone. Should I get her another housemate?

She's a Siberian, by the way. Only two months old.

Update:

@Douglas: You don't need to be an asshole. You are reported.

    Better not, but... you have some options here

    1. Go to the same pet store you bought this hammy, then go to the same cage it was in, then buy a SISTER for her.

    2. Get another same aged hamster as yours, if they dont get along, get another cage and house that new hammy...

    3. Get any random hamster and if they dont get along, get another cage to house that new hammy.

    hamsters can often fight, till the death, then eat each other :o

    so i personally wouldnt, however if you really want to you could and just keep a very close eye on them, how did her sister die? where they fighting?

    i think you should just get lots of tubes, a wheel and knaws to keep her occupied.

    Obviously you should feed the hamster to a cat, it's the only solution.
