My around 1 1/2 year old PEW has had lots of medical issues in her life and most recently some really bad pneumonia that almost killed her and put her in the hospital for 2 days. She lost a lot of weight and I have been working to put it back on while treating her lung issues but I’m noticing suddenly that her back legs don’t seem to be working well and her tail is limp. Could this be muscle atrophy from the extreme weight loss? Or something else?? I’ve called up my exotics vet that’s been treating her but the vet is on vacation until the 17th of March. I’ve set an appointment for then but I’m super worried about her. She looks like a walking skeleton and I feel like I’ve failed her as an owner I’ve been trying to make sure she’s eating and giving her extra meals but it doesn’t seem to help. Please let me know if there’s anything I can do for her until the vet appointment. Thanks.
