Pet Forum / Mammals / Rats / September 2007Daisy died today
I don't feel too bad. It's just as well. She had also lost a lot of weight in the last couple of weeks. She had also been acting strangely - mostly keeping to herself in the hammock, and occasionally going schizo, chewing on the bars of the cage. I'd let her out, and she'd hop around the room exploring before eventually lying on a shoe or something to rest. She had been eating a lot less than normal and had lost a lot of weight. I think her lungs were in bad shape from her last myco infection, as she was always breathing hard. It seemed like she was having another myco infection, so I was giving her Baytril. That's when she panicked, had her worst gasping attack yet, and died. I'm so sorry to hear that. It may have been her time, but it's never easy. Tim > I don't feel too bad. It's just as well.

I've ben consoling myself by telling myself that it would have been an ugly decline over the next couple of weeks rather than that she may have lived that much longer or more.... I'm so sorry about Daisy. I hate seeing animals gasping away, having had asthma, I know how unpleasant this can be. I wonder if the baytril got in her lungs? Hugs, Dewi Dear one, I am so sorry. You are in my thoughts. Hugs, Lynn kitty I don't feel too bad. It's just as well. She had also lost a lot of weight in the last couple of weeks.
