Recently, I got two male rats whom are about 2 months old. One of them, Milo, has something wrong with one of his ears. By the tip, there's this big area that's oddly colored, it looks kind of like there's crust or something. It's kind of a white, grey color and is just covering it. Then, by the...

My hamster has been bleeding from his bottom area for about 2 days now. Yesterday I went and checked on him and the blood was gone so I thought everything was ok.

So I know someone posted something like this at one point, but I couldn't find it, so I figured I'd throw this out there on my own, and I figure since we all know how important rabbit poop is, I don't have to warn you that this is going to get a little gross: I had Linus out of his cage for a...

Hi, I would very much appreciate any suggestion since my hamster is ill and it seems that there's nothing I can do about it. I have a one and a half old Syrian - white with gray ears- named Rica. About a month ago, I noticed that she started wetting her fur when she peed and didn't smell...

I've had my two female fancy rats for about 2 months now (River Song and Amy Pond). We took them to the vet when we first purchased them and they were treated for respiratory troubles (no shocker there). they're currently on Baytril twice a day but I noticed that Amy made some sort of strange...

Hey everyone. I've got a cage of four female mice that live happily together. However one day, I noticed that one of them looks very different, and has no energy at all. She used to be one of the most hyper of the pack too. She kind of walks with a hunch, her eyes are rather squint, and her coat...

I've recently been given a young male mouse, and for the first week or so he was fine. This morning one of his eyes was a little stuck shut, but I had woken him up by changing his water - it could be sleep? Then I was handling him a few moments ago and he squeaked a great deal when I put a hand...
