OMG HELP Will my hamster Die?!~?

Question

My hamster, Missy is about a year old. Lately she has been acting very strange. Every mornin around 5 when I get up, shes aake and happy. But lately she has been sleeping a lot, and when she walks around her eyes are closed. She hasnt opened her eyes in two or more days now. I think she might have wetbottom, because her tail has all this moistish stuff all around it, and she makes a point of sticking her butt up when she walks. Something similar happen to my friends hamster. It died in 2 days. Will my hamster die? is there anything to do about it? Can I make it less painful? HELP im only 13

Answer 1

she might be sick. you should bring him to petco or somewhere. they probably know what to do with him. you should give him lots of water also. or see its a**s. when its sticking her butt up it may be trying to p**p..

Answer 2

you should take her to a vet.  My sister raised hamsters and one of them came down w/ wetbottom/ it lived,try and not worry,animals are wonderful to have! I wish you luck that she gets to feeling better.

Answer 6

Go get some DriTail from the petstore. Put it in her food and water as the directions say. If she won't move or drink, wrap her in a towel with her face out of it, and force her to drink the water with the medicine one drip at a time.

Doing his consistently will make her get better. Also bring her to a vet. Keep her cage warm. Don't let her get chilly at all. Do not bring her to Petco or a petstore. The staff are not veterinarians. They have enough hamsters in the back rooms that have this. They get it from the breeders and many of them develop it when they are at the pet store. That is why new animals stay for a week or more in the back rooms before coming up front. They will treat it with DriTail.
