RE: Hamster Cage Smells Bad Post By eileen, scotland (Guest Post) (10/25/2008) Our hamster cage has started to smell worse than usual. She seems ok though and is eating and drinking.

Wet tail is a form of diarrhea that coats the hamster's bottom and creates blockage and attracting infection. You might want to have her looked at by a vet, but if it's too late, there's nothing that anyone can do.

Not only helps control any odour but makes your room smell quite nice too.

It will not harm your hampster.
