So I had noticed scabs on whitey about 2 weeks ago....none of the other rats had them except Dot had like 1 on her.
I thought it was just them scratching because I haven't had the brick in there to dull the nails down, or maybe from them playing around.
I took Whitey out and looked at her closer because her face seemed like the fur was thinner.
Her weight is fine, she breathes funny, but she has breathed funny since I brought them home. The only thing about her breathing I can think of is that it is squeekier, and she kinda twiches when she breathes.
The only change in diet I can think of is I added a trail mix that had soy beans in them, but not that much at all.
She does have a vet appointment, but my money situation is sticky this month, so I will not be able to afford the meds....only the exam for him to tell me what is wrong with her.
They MAY do payments, but last time I asked, they said no. I HATE these vets, I dunno why I am going, I know what they are gonna do...AND I am going to the vet that I blame Sammy's death on ONLY because I know he has experience with skin issues, and this vet doesn't tell me quarintining is pointless, and that rats are fine by themselves, and I could go on and on....I will save this for another rant...I just have issues with the moronic vets here....SO...ANYWAY....
What do you think I should do? What do you think it is? I do not have pics yet because the ones I did get came out fuzzy...
Thanks!
