Okay, She's only on the steroids for her nose.... I can't see any diarrhoea in her sawdust or bedding...just all over her bum. Mercifully there's nothing, tissue or otherwise hanging out her rear. She's not squeaking or vocalising pain if I touch her. But she smells...
I don't want to poke at her nor am I going to bathe her rump.I really don't want her stressed anymore.
I have offered her her favourite nibbles, which she has pouched and stashed in her nest, I think that's a good sign, right? I have added more fluff to her nest and draped her habitat with a loose blanket ( I have left a area uncovered!) so as to keep her warm.
Souffle, I was thinking about that in regards her leg. I was wondering, if this is wet tail, how could she have gotten it? Isn't mainly an affliction of young hamsters and serious stress??? Or am I just generalising? Oh god, I hope she's alright. Back to the vets!
