Try not to disturb your hamster and just dispose of soiled bedding but do not clean the cage until it's wet tail is cured. You have to take it to a vet or else it will die

You need to clean out the cage once a week. You should not need to bathe your hamster (although I do once every few months). NEVER put anything in your hamster's anus - they poop it all out.
