Today I got such heartbreaking news!
My sweet Tyrion who I have had since November 2013 when he was an itty bitty 7-8 weeks has been diagnosed with PT!
He has been digressing so quickly.
I only noticed a week ago that he was a little off his normal chill self. He bit my fiance's ear. Which he has never done. He was acting like a baby rat who doesn't know better.
So I kept watching him in a smaller play group and he was falling over all the time. If he wasn't on a perfectly flat surface he was teetering
I took him to the vet today and it was confirmed. He's on meds and I'm hoping it slows it down. Tonight he seems that much work. The trip to the vet took a lot out of him. He couldn't even shell a sunflower seed I'm so sad my baby boy is nearing his end! He will be 2 sometime in July (birth date unknown)!
He's kind of been my heart rat since Sterling. Tyrion chose me when we went to pick up Boots, he climbed my arm and sat on my shoulder like "OK where are we going?"
I don't know what I'll do!! I am worried Boots will get really depressed or more aggressive then he's been. Odin is still young and spry. I may work on introducing baby Neo when he's bigger so Odin will have a little "brother" but I'm so overwhelmed with the thought of losing Tyrion!!
I'm in tears...I know this group has people who won't look at me like I'm nuts for being so sad.
On the trip home! (11/2013)
Checking out his new digs (11/2013)
