Pro - Does anyone else's nest boxes get soaked in rain?

My sons hamster is still less than a year old but is acting strangely. It happened once a couple of weeks ago but he has been fine since until now. He is shaking excessively and when he tries to move around is struggling, the best way to discribe it would be to say he looks extremely drunk. Any Ideas?

Any sign of wet tail? I would be tempted to pop it along to a vet.

Ive heard of wet tail but what exactly is it i need to look out for?

 

Im told Hamsters are prone to strokes, I was wondering about diabeties. He is eating fine and just looking a little unsteady now with a limp.

I'd take him to a vet. Small furries can deteriorate quickly.
