Sure, it's definitely your responsibility to see that they don't suffer needlessly. That's my point. "Treatment" of a hamster would involve what? My vet has told me several times that wet tail is a roll of the dice for hamsters. Give them the medicine they have at the pet store. It it doesn't work, buy a new hamster. If an animal was truly in so much pain that it needed to be euthanized, it could be done immediately and for free at home (not that I could, but that's what my dad and husband are for). Trucking around a dying hamster to the vet or human society and waiting for an appointment is cruel, IMO.
