She doesnt seem very coordinated and her eyes are always half open. She will lick wet food (yogurt, tomato sauce, applesauce, mashed banana, baby food) and I have been mixing in some water-soaked bread or tiny rice grains in with different combinations of the wet food. We're taking her to the vet on Monday to be checked out and from the research ive done on pituitary tumors, she'll either be given steroids and medicine of some sort or we may have to have her put down. It's very sad especially because this is an awful shock and I love her very much, but if it is a pituitary tumor and the meds wont keep her happy for a few more months than I dont want her to progress to the point of violent seizures or other things. The video on pituitary tumors by isamu rats helped. Bear is also possibly being isolated from the other rats, mostly I think because it is hard or impossible for her to climb up the bars of the cage to the top where the other rats spend most of their time in the their sputnik.</p></blockquote><p></p>
