I lost my beautiful boy yesterday. I justcan't believe he's gone. I miss you Lou.

I'm so sorry :bigtears:

Thank you for your support. I have been going back and forth in my mind about what to do but I know the surgery isn't going to save him. He's doing ok right now so I'll enjoy the time I have left.

Oh my Darlin - Thank you James Waller - Everything about this has been difficult to live with. I don't know how long I'm supposed to poke and prod him, fill him with medicine, force feed him,stress him out at the vet all while his body is working against him. He is weak and the vettold me...

Louie has recovered from his head tilt but unfortunately he has continued to lose weight and has now developed an infection in his jaw and a large abcess. He doesn't lay down completely anymore because he can't get back up but he is still eating, begs for treats and hangs out happily with his...

Louie's doing much better now. His head is still slightly tilted but I don't need to lubricate his eye anymore and he moves around rather normally. He wobbles from time to time. He's still very thin and I'm not sure how I can fatten him up a little. He is free fed pellets but that doesn't help...

I'm so sorry.

Oh no! I'm so sorry :sad:

My hamster's name is Vernon :biggrin2:.

People at work say that to me all the time. It's gets really annoying!

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry :sad:

I'm so sorry :hug1.

Thank you. I willask about more aggressive antibiotics but he does seem to be doing well on Bactrim. Luckily my vet is the #1 guy for the Gainesville Rabbit Rescue so I'm pretty confident in his knowledge but I will mention what you said. I just hope that the head tilt isn't secondary to...

He hasn't had any problems eating which is why the weight loss was so alarming. His appetite has always been good and he didn't have any behavior changes until the head tilt started. The cause of all this is still a mystery but he's a fighter. If he doesn't give up then neither will I :biggrin2:.

My 5 year old Louie has developed head tilt after some unexplained weight loss. On the first vet trip (before the head tilt started) the doctor felt a hairball so we decided to make some dietary changes to try and get rid of it. On the 2nd visit the hairball had shrunk somebut he had lost...

The wet paper towels seem to make it smear more. I just thought I would try the wipes.

My Louie is dealing with some serious health issues and has some mushy poop sticking to his bottom. He isn't able to clean himself down there and I was wondering if unscented baby wipes were safe to use. I've been using some cornstarch as well but I thought the wipes would be a little easier. He...

I guess some couples just can't live together lol.

Thank you for the warm welcome. Yes I've been to Kathy's house and did a little cage cleaning. She's so nice. I wish I could foster but I just don't have the space and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to let them go but I'll help the rescue in any other way I can :biggrin2:.
