Cuddles Story:
This is what is going on with my chinchilla cuddles, I am stressed and very attached to her, and I am at my end of knowing what to do. First she got a foot infection so we went to our local vet and he prescribed us Baytril in pill form. We ended up giving it to her in syringe form. We then noticed she was losing weight rapidly. We read online and found that we should give her critical care.We also contacted our vet and he gave her fluids. Right now we are feeding her critical care and she is eating a lot of hay. Hay seems to be the only thing she wants to eat. She resists the critical care, we can only get about 5ml down her. She is drinking very little water and she is pooping but very little. It is almost as if she isn't pooping at all. She won't even eat her favorite treat! I'm not sure if she is constipated or she has something blocking her system. She started to go downhill after she was put on Baytril. I am not sure if something is blocking her system either. Its not looking good for her. We are rubbing her belly and putting warm rice on it too. I have no clue what to do now. She is only four. Its not looking very good for her.
