So one of my younger girls, Zoey, who is only about a year and has always been a big girl, has something going on for sure. I have no idea what is going on with her but it started with her drinking a bit more often then usual a couple weeks ago, but not an alarming amount, I just noticed and kept it in mind. Then she started looking skinny for herself and I started tracking her weight and she's been up and down, dropping almost 30g in 2 days then gaining it back again today, I'm very concerned. The other strange symptom, but I'm not sure it's related (and I apologize for the grossness and vulgarity lol) but I've noticed my other rats, and especially the two babies have been licking her private A LOT???
Now in the past day or two she's started to look sick, just roughed up and slightly lethargic but she's still eating and drinking well and coming to the door for treats and pets and out of the cage to play during out time? The only other thing I noticed is that her spine seems to be slightly more defined, which could be from her weight loss except, it still seemed that way when she gained back most of the weight today? Does anyone have thoughts, I'm sure it's probably not very good news. We're seeing the vet at one tomorrow. Thanks in advance!
