what wrong with my rat?
my pet rat lost all her fur months ago and the vet cant acertain a reason why. She had a pea shaped lump on her face wo months ago that was an abcess that cleared up quickly. otherwise shes generally healthy and a very active ratty . Today i came hom to find that shes freezing cold, lethargic seems to be making a popping sound when breathing and seems not to have any energy. even to eat or drink. Ive put her on a heat pad to help warm her up shes usually really quite warm due to the lack of fur and am giving her water by syringe. I cant get her to the vet till monday as the office is closed till then and i live to far away from another vets to get there. Ive got some baytril left over from the abcess so am wondering if i should give it to her as a just in case.
my rat has a cagemate.
i wish i could get her to the vets but where i live there is one practice within 100 miles so im a bit stuck till they open again
Sounds like an upper respiratory infection. Don't use the left over meds, they could be the wrong type and you could be offering the bacteria a chance to build resistance. All of this could be old age if your Rat is close to or over 3 years old. Pet grade Rats only live an average of 2-4 years. Take your Rat to an Emergency Vet. Remove the heating pad you Rat could be to weak to move if the pad is causing discomfort.
