I noticed my girl Liaka has not been herself. She is about a year old and is a resent rescue of mine. I was away for 3 days and when I came back I noticed that she didn't come out to see me, which she usually does.
I picked her up and she seemed limp but I thought that it because I had just woke her up. I put her back in her cage to see how she was with walking and it looked like she was dragging herself a little bit. She was also still limp when I picked her up again, and when I gave her a treat and it looked like she was having trouble holding it in both hands.
I'm really worried because I'm in debt right now so I don't have alot of money for expensive treatment. I know she is prone to tumors because she has 2 that have came up since I rescued her and that was only about 2 months ago. I have also seem rats who have had nerological issues and she seem to have the same type of problems that the others rats did. Could it be a brain tumor even though I don't see any lumps around her head? Does anyone one what might be the cause of this?
