It looks like my rat Ginger may have a yeast infection (thrush) in the shaft of his penis. Ginger has bad hind leg paralysis and often gets wet around that area. We wash him and gently blow dry the area once daily but it looks like he's developed thrush in spite of our efforts.
I can't find any info on yeast infections in rats. Just wondering if anyone knows of any anti-fungals that can work. I'll be talking to the vet about this so would like to be prepared for when I speak to her.
The poor boy, it's really hard getting old. He must be uncomfortable, but he's not ill enough to be PTS. It's just normal old age. Reminds me of the elderly people I see in hospital.
