  1. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    Da Vinci's getting worse...If any of you remember, I posted about him "croaking" or "oinking" every once in a while.. I walked in today and he was doing some high-pitched sound when he was breathing...I want to say it's wheezing but I'm not 100%. The Vet's phone is busy, and even then the Rat...
  2. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    Hi, I have a little rat, Fiver, who's pretty ill. I've been hand feeding and medicating her (baytril, doxy) for around two weeks. She's around 2.5 years old now. Ever since she was young she'd make burbling/squeaking sounds most of the time but especially when she was excited. About two weeks...
  3. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    I've had my rat Bella for a little over two years now, and for the past couple of months she's had chronic respiratory disease. She got it from another rat she was with for a while, and when I took her to the vet, he diagnosed her with pneumonia and gave me antibiotics. It turned out that we...

  7. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    I just got her yesterday and it's the first time I heard it. She also keeps licking her mouth and cleaning her nose. I let her sniff me and touched her stomach and I'm not sure because she wouldn't let me touch her beyond that but it feels a little bloated Here's a link to the sound...

    In August of 2006, my sister came into my work with a tiny little black kitten. Her then bf (now husband)'s neighbor's cat had a litter of kittens, and they were giving them away. Rosie was 7 1/2 weeks old, but was tiny, and just really strange looking. Her belly was very swollen, her head...

She...
