I wasn’t too sure how to title this.
A little earlier, I was standing by the cage watching my boys. One of them was part way in their igloo and I noticed that his whole body was jolting. I was thinking it may just be hiccups but it seemed to strong and exaggerated to be just hiccups.
I tried searching it up but all that came up was websites about seizures. Of course I freaked out at the fact that that is a possibility so I skimmed a few then came across this video:
WARNING
My boy’s wasn’t like what was shown in the video. He didn’t run around the cage or seize like that. His was more of uncontrollable spasms or something of the sort. I then worded the search differently and came across this thread that was posted on rat shack: https://www.ratshackforum.com/threads/body-spasms.27899/
The users in that thread suggested that they were just hiccups and I am hoping that is the case for my boy as well.
I am not quite sure what else to add so if you have any questions to better understand the situation I would be glad to answer them if it means that I can know what is going on my my boy.
Please get back to me as soon as possible as I would like to know as soon as I can.. thank you in advance. All help and replies are appreciated.
