OASIS WET-TAIL DROPS are an effective liquid treatment for the condition commonly known as "wet tail". Wet tail is a stress induced diarrhea that is very dibilitating on the hamster and often fatal. Early diagnosis and intervention is the best course of curative action. See detailed disease description and instructions below.

These effective drops have the same antibiotic as the competing brand - and may be used in place of or in a continuation of treatment started with that brand. However - OASIS WET-TAIL DROPS have a palatable orange flavoring. Hamsters love the taste, and consume more treated water, increasing the odds of a successful cure. Its a matter of choice...and the hamsters choose OASIS WET-TAIL DROPS every time!

Safe for use with hamsters of all sizes and types, mice, rats, gerbils and guinea pigs. WET-TAIL DROPS come in a one ounce bottle,with a convenient dropper and detailed instruction sheet.

EASY TO USE DURING ANY STAGE OF ILLNESS... MAY BE GIVEN DIRECTLY INTO THE MOUTH OF VERY ILL OR WEAK ANIMALS.

WET TAIL DROPS ARE IDEAL FOR:
For HAMSTERS stressed by transport, new diet or excessive handling. Stress is believed to be the leading cause of diarrhea (wet-tail) in hamsters. Also suitable for mice, rats, gerbils, guinea pigs and similar small pets.

SYMPTOMS OF STRESS and ILLNESS MAY INCLUDE: 
Obvious changes in behavior or physical appearance such as weight loss, hunched posture, hair coat that is ungroomed or "standing up", hamster sitting in one position with eyes squinted, lack of appetite, dehydration or diarrhea. The animal may not want to be handled and may show signs of depression or anxiety. Early intervention (before onset of diarrhea) offers the best chance for a cure.

Sick hamsters often have dry looking ears (a sign of dehydration) held back against the head (often with a folded look), and empty cheek pouches which give the face a thin, lean look. Any sign of a distended belly is a sign of digestive trouble that may be wet-tail in the advanced stages.

WHAT IS WET-TAIL?
The serious condition known as "Wet-Tail" or Proliferative Ileitis is most often characterized by a wet or matted tail and/or lower belly area, with obvious staining from diarrhea. Wet-tail is thought to be a stress induced watery diarrhea that is bacterial in origin, likely infectious and often fatal unless treated very early. When stress of any kind upsets the hamster's natural defenses, it becomes susceptible very quickly to wet-tail disease. Since wet-tail is very difficult to control, any symptoms such as those listed above are indications that your hamster needs help urgently... do not delay treatment until you actually see signs of diarrhea.

NOTE: To guard against infection transmission when receiving new hamsters, mice, rats, gerbils or other pocket pets, thoroughly wash any plastic pet containers used for transporting your new pet. Use hot soap and water followed by soaking in a solution of 10 parts water and 1 part bleach. Dispose of or cardboard pet-caddy boxes promptly. Keep new pets separate for at least 7 days.

WET-TAIL MAY BE CAUSED BY STRESS, WHICH MAY INCLUDE: 
Any change in habits such as being shipped to the pet store, being moved to a new cage or change in the arrangement or set-up of the hamster's existing home, disruption of the food pantry area or introduction of a new diet. Changes in a hamster's living conditions should be made gradually if at all. Hamsters are creatures of routine and habit, and do not understand the changes made by people caring for them. To avoid stress, clean only part of the cage at any time, and leave the food storage pantry area alone and undisturbed. If there is damaged or spoiled food, remove only that portion of the food pantry and leave the rest where the hamster knows it is safe and available. Hamsters gain security from knowing that their source of food is safe and available at all times.

Causes of diarrhea other than stress may be infectious in nature. ALWAYS WASH YOUR HANDS WITH SOAP AND WATER IMMEDIATELY AFTER HANDLING SICK HAMSTERS.

TREATMENT OF STRESS: To help in preventing stress to your new pet hamster, limit the amount of time spent handling the hamster, and do not wake it up while it is sleeping in its nest for the first week.
