My 26 months old boy is sick for 4 days now and I don't know what's happening to him. He's not eating or drinking any liquids and he's very weak. He was okay on saturday night, and suddenly, on sunday he was already like this. On sunday night he had drink more liquids than normal (he doesn't drink water, so that day he was drinking a fruit vitamin) and he haven't eat his food or any fruit, only baby food. He could barely walk, and when eating or drinking he kinda threw his head on the plates.
He stopped eating the baby food and drinking vitamin on monday and since then he only eats about one or two small pieces of watermelon and drinks less than 1ml of water that I give him with a syringe. When I tried giving him water today he just kept it in his mouth.
I also noticed that he has blood above his eyes, it looks like he had scratched it, but I didn't see him scratching.
Since the day it started I thought he was about to die - it happened so suddenly and so intensely -, so I tried to make him as comfortable as possible, but now, even if he's about to pass away, he's suffering and nothing seems to work.
I think it's worth mentioning that he had some weird issues last month. He spent about two or three weeks without moving his feet properly, like he was too weak. We took him to the vet, but by that time he was already getting better, and when she made a few exams there was nothing wrong with him. Not even the vets could tell what happened and we didn't worry about it cause it stopped and he seemed okay.
We're on a trip now and this city doesn't have any vets that understand about rats.
PS: he began to feel bad one day before the trip, I don't know how much this is affecting him, but I know traveling didn't started it.
