Wet tail is basically hamster diarrhea. You will notice that the hamsters feces is no longer solid. The cage may smell bad, despite cleaning (although you should continue to keep it clean). As the name tells you, the hamster will also have wet feces around its tail and bottom. It will need to be treated or the hamster could die. There are over the counter remedies sold at most pet stores.
