Answer
Hi Mel,

You should take her to a vet as soon as possible.  Until then, try wetting your finger with water and see if you can get her to lick it.  She needs to be hydrated if she has wet tail.  But please, do take her to see a vet, as only he can properly diagnose and treat (and possibly save) your hamster.

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