Hello,
I am sorry to hear about your dog. If your dog did get into rat poison it certainly an be fatal. The longer you wait to get help the worse your dogs prognosis is. It is helpful to know what kind of poison he ate. With this information we recommend that you call the pet poison helping and the product manufacturer to get help for your dog. In most cases we pre-emptiness stray dogs on vitamin K supplements to slow or stop the clotting problems that rat poisons kill by. I cannot over emphasize how important it is to get help. I also cannot over empathize how quickly you need to act. Rat poison is a cruel, painful, and awful way to die. No one should ever buy or use this product. There are better, safer ways to manage rats. I suggest a cat, or two.
Fancy Mouse and Tetracycline Antibiotics?
So I had a ca. 9 month old fancy mouse who started with an irriteted eye around 2 weeks ago. She was otherwise fine and healthy and had a weight of 32gram. She got eye drops twice a day for 10 days, but that didn’t help much.
So last Thursday (two days ago) I visited the vet again and she got tetracycline s.c. and I got some of it home, to inject it to her every two days additional to her eye drops.
So when I wanted to give it to her today, I found her outside of her hiding places cold and apathic. She rarely made trembling, seemingly non controlled movements with her head and paws, but couldn’t walk or rob. She didn’t really react when I took her in my hands. I rushed to the vet where she got fluids and vitamins (B12). Her weight was still fine and she was only a little dehydrated. I kept her warm and should keep her hydrated and try to feed her. She still died around 2 hours later, but she was her hiding spot, together with the other mice she lived with.
Is it possible that it was an reaction to the Tetracycline, that she maybe couldn’t metabolize it or something? It just came so suddenly without warning. Thanks for reading.

Jayden Cihlar Hi, yes I sure can. Hibernation could be the case, that’s likely, but for some reason, I don’t think it is the case. I think it is most likely room temperature or sleep deprivation. Don’t worry it isn’t serious. Try changing the temperature of your room. If there are any loud noises try to fix them. The problem with hamsters is they have a lot of problems. They can make you over worried because of their behavior too. If you still think that there is a problem, if problems get worse, or if the problem lingers go to the vet. And do understand they have small life spans. You have to understand this. I think before mastering hampsters try black rats, healthy hedgehogs, and gerbils, long-tailed chinchillas, ferrets, or guinea pigs. They all live longer lives and act like hampsters. Hope you have a good time with your little bud!
Hi there my hamster Isabella she is about 5 months old.

Anonymous How cold *was* it in the room?
My 6month old rabbit ate a few fresh corn kernels and i just found out they’re extrwmwly dangerous for rabbits . He just at a few (12-15) Will he be okay?
Hello,
I’m so sorry to hear about your mouse. I think that you tried very hard to help her and that very often it is very difficult and almost impossible to know what is going on and whether or not it will be responsive to treatment. I think that she was telling you for a few days and that it might have just been an untreatable condition. Sadly these pets don’t often live long. I’m sorry for your loss. It sounds like you were an excellent parent to your mouse.
Sincerely
Krista.
