    Hi Charlotte,

    Mice usually are jumpy/twitchy but without seeing your mouse, it’s hard to say what is going on. It could just be a normal mouse moving.

    If she’s eating and drinking she is probably fine. YES, mice , all mice make nests, usually quite large one’s too. Add some paper towel or toilet paper tubes and she will have a ball shredding them up. Sounds like she may be pregnant. If she is, you will soon find baby mice! They are only pregnant for a few weeks before having babies and they can have around 7-14 babies.

    Enjoy your new mouse!

It’s Very Difficult To Give Her Multiple Meds, She Sees Me Coming And Runs To…

It’s very difficult to give her multiple meds, she sees me coming and runs to hide. I give the prednisone twice daily, that’s not so bad being a liquid, but it would be easier if I could get the pills in her all at one time. I’ve read where you can combine pills in an empty gel cap to get the cat to take them all at once, making it less stressful for her. What is your opinion on doing it this way?

    Which ones? Most often it can be from allergies or secondary infection. I believe, though, that sometimes it can be neurological in nature too, such as having a spine pinching a nerve some place. A long shot is a nutritional issue, such as B vitamins levels issue.

My 7 Year Old Pitbull Recently Went About 4 Days (maybe 5) Without Defecating And…

My 7 year old pitbull recently went about 4 days (maybe 5) without defecating and eating minimally (no dog food, just occasionally would sneak some people foood) and escessively thirsty and peeing excessively . I made a vet appointment, and the day prior to the appointment she defecated, and began to eat (not much for the most part, juat a few bites here and there and was back to being herself in regards to personality. To be safe I took her to the vet anyway as an appointment had already been made. The vet diagnosed it as pancreatitis, noting that she seemed to have pulled through the worst of it on her own he said and put her on a course of meds (antibiotic and what I understood to be a probiotic) After the first day of meds she again became lethargic, and again won’t eat, not eating is putting it lightly, she has an aversion to it, regardless of what food it is she tends to get up and move elsewhere to avoid it. She is still urinating and defecating infrequently despite diminished food and liquid intake

    What diagnostics did your vet do to determine it was pancreatitis? It is possible that she’s reacting to the antibiotic or it is possible that the diagnosis is something else. I’d definitely call the vet back and tell them what is going on.

  2. Eric Block

    blood test and general examination. I will call to see if it’s a reaction to the meds

    Can’t comment on the blood test much without knowing what it showed and whether or not they ran cPL. Please do talk to them, though.

My 10yo rat terrier (have had since 6months old) is ppl and dog aggressive. He bit my 10 month old son twice this summer, no blood but snaps every chance he’s near baby.he has bitten people in the past. He has severe anxiety & is afraid of everything. he’s always been this way. His fur is falling out, he has hard black patches all over, and soft pink skin showing I’m other places. After biting my son’s face, hubby is talking about euthanasia. Is this the right choice?

She is a 10yr old Bichon Frise female and does have some arthritis. To the best of our knowledge there was no significant moment that this all started happening, she just started showing signs of pain Wednesday morning. She has passed normal bowel movements, urinated, ate at least once, and is still drinking water but has not slept since Wednesday. She can go down stairs but not up them and is extremely sensitive to touch at all.
