My poor Ollie is two years old. That's pretty old for a hamster is t it? Well yesterday I picked her up to play with her and she had a huge lump on her throat! I suspect it to be a tumor. My parent won't spend money to take her to a vet because they suspect she is going to die soon any way. The...

Unfortunately Baby Girl has not gotten any better. Well I did find medication for her ears and her itching is gone, but the past few days she really has gone down hill. I know it is old age, I refuse to take her to the vet to have them tell me she needs to be put down, although she is in no...

My degu is about to lose the cage mate she has known ever since she was a baby. The other degu is older than her, and is soon to die from a bad respiratory infection. We are providing all the vet care and comfort we can, but the inevitable is that sooner or later she will be put down. But what...

:begMy cat is dying and I do not want to give up on her too early because I would never forgive myself. She may be in the end stages of renal failure, the doctor put her on antibotics to try and help but I do not see it working. She barely eats her soft food and I am not seeing her drink water...

Hello. My name is Sarah, and I have a female mouse, Charley, who is about 1 year and 7 months old. She is by herself now, but had a sister that needed to be put down about 1 year and 3 months ago. Lately, I have noticed some hind leg paralysis in Charley. Also, she has been making noises...

My chinchilla had his paw stuck in the cage front hanging upside down and was lifeless to the touch. I took him out of the cage and held him in my hands, I was almost sure that he was dead but I watched and saw that he was very slowly breathing. I tried warming him against my body and he moved...

My cat is 12 and a half years old. Around mid summer she started throwing up a couple of times every day. We thought it was just because of hairballs, since there was hair in her vomit, so we waited it out, but it didn't stop. In fact it only got worse. Instead of just puking a couple times a...

About a week and a half ago a friend and I decided to save 10 feeder rats from a immenent death from a local at-home breeder. 3 of the rats were about 2.5 weeks old (had eyes open and pretty active) and 7 were about 1 week old (eyes closed). We have been feeding every 3-4 hours at this...

Hello, I am worried about my Hamster, Binky. He is very sick, he has always been very active, noctunally, and also responsive to me during the day when he has been up and about. Now, I think he is dying. His health seems to have decreased rapidly, even though his appearance has changed over the...

I have a fancy mouse, she's about a year old and has developed some kind of swelling in her eyes. She went apparently blind in her left eye a few months ago. She has always been really fat but recently lost all the weight. Her ears are less pink than they used to be as is the case with her tail...

I'm just cross posting this from my blog to here because I haven't the heart to write it all again. FYI- Keda is the woman who offered Ben a job in FL and also told us she had property we could rent. What she didn't tell us was the job wasn't even set up (therefore non existent) and that the...
