I recently got a rat that still had its baby fuzz from work...i just couldnt let him become food. he had a bit of a sneeze but i didnt think anything of it. about a week later it was worse. he had snot covering his nostrils and sometimes would bleed out of his nose. he ate and drank fine.
i put a heating pad under part of his cage maybe thinking it was just a cold and i fed him lots of veggies to help his immune system. but he ended up dieing.
well last night i was given a small rat. but not as small as my first one. but he is still a baby. he had a bit of snot on his nose but he doesnt cough or sneeze.
any ideas...i dont know what else i can do. it was hard loosing the first one, blaming myself for its death. but i dont want to kill the second one as well.
any help would be appreciated
thanks,
fuzz
