I woke up this morning and noticed alley had a lil porphyrin around her nose. I’ve seen it on her once before too a month back. it was a pretty small amount. I know that porphyrin can be a sign of respiratory infections. which scares me to no end bc im a smoker so im always scared about their lungs. however my other rat barbara is the one who comes out with me in public (they’re both emotional support animals so i’m a little attached) and she’s often on my shoulder when i smoke. and yes i know that’s super bad for her but she enjoys sitting on my shoulder or in my bag and going around town w me. i’m just really worried about getting them sick i was reading up and i learned that sometimes a little occasional porphyrin is okay and normal? can anyone confirm? i feel like a pretty bad rat parent
