Hi,
I got 2, 8 week old rats 2 days ago and ever since we got into the car to being them home, the little dumbo one has been sneezing alot! I read it can just be because of different homes theyre in but it had been 24 hours and i felt so bad for him! so i took him to the vets and he said there was red ish stuff coming out of his nose (he told me the name i just cant remember it) he took him temperature and listened to his heart and said both were fine. He has prescribed him antibiotics and anti-inflammatory which i am giving him once a day. Hes been on them for 24 hours now and doesnt seem to be getting better. When out of the cage he is fine and will run around he is just abit shy and scared still, which doctor also said his sneezing could be due to stress. First few days he was fine and running about his cage but last 24 hours hes been hidden alot not sure if hes abit scared still due to going to vets and that. Does anyone have any advice for me please??
