Video of marbles sneezing.

I brought Marbles to the vet last friday, and they told me she sneezes because she's stressed, and to seperate her from all other rats, and only check on her occaisonally. Well, i didnt like they way the vet just looked at her for a HALF a second and told me this. Plus, i don't know what she would do without Splinter! They sleep tonight, play, cuddle and groom each other all the time, they're NEVER apart.

Here is a video i took this morning after a big sneezing fit just after waking up. Thoughts anyone? I'm worried about her.

Is that squeaking noise her sneezing.. or is it your camera??? O.O

Was she put on meds? I can't remember... if not, I'd definitely would start a course of doxy at least.

That squeeking noise is her.

No she wasn't put on meds, the doc said it was just stress.

Is she like that inside her cage as well?

 

[Tarah]

yeap.

I'm not sure...

I'm definitely keeping my fingers crossed for you and Marbles though - a round of antibiotics surely couldn't hurt.

And I think your instincts about your vet are dead-on.

I found another vet that's about 15 minutes away, she'll be going there for a visit this Thursday.

Good luck at the vet. Hope he/she gives you meds for your girl.
