follow up for wet tail

Question
Hello,
This is me again with my same hamster snickers. I just checked on her and She is still breathing extremely hard. Also I now think for sure she has wet tail. She has diahrea and smells really bad. Is she going to die?

Answer
Hi Alexa,

Unfortunately, if it is wet tail, it is often fatal after only 24 hours (after the symptoms are visible).  The only thing you can do is to take her to the vet immediately - as soon as possible - and try to get her to drink water, as she will be very dehydrated.  Good luck, and I hope it turns out well.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
