My hamster is sick with wet poop, discharge, and possible worms.

Question

I think my hamster is sick. I came home from vacation, leaving her with full food, water, and a clean cage and my roommate to check on her for the week I was gone, and her bedding is soaked in her tunnels, full of undigested wet food, slushy piles of poop but not reminicent of wet tail, and there are piles of white discharge that look like they are full of dried out tiny ramen noodle-esque worms.

Thanks for reaching out about Remy. A veterinary visit is recommended as soon as possible as does sound as if she is fairly ill. Concerns over maggots in the feces/wet bedding. Clean cage well, offer food/water via a syringe until a veterinary visit can be scheduled. Good luck.
