Basil is behaving strangely. It seems as if he has some food caught in his throat that he is trying to get out.
He has no respiratory distress, is not gasping and has no blue extremities. Debbie D's advice is to leave him alone and do nothing. This is, of course, very hard!
He is interested and comes to the cage door when I show up so he does not appear to be lethargic or suffering. He just looks like something is bugging the crap out of him.
Would something like yogurt or kefir help or do I need to bite the bullet, follow Debbie's advice, and leave my little man in peace???
I am noticing that he is not interested in the water bottle so I am not sure if any kind of yummy liquid would be a good thing.
Can anyone help me through this? I HATE it when my boys are not feeling themselves and I can't help!!! :gaah:
