Phoebe is acting strangely
she was fine at 6am when she woke me up doing circuits around the room, has eaten all of her veg and pelllets during the night etc. I didn't get up properly until 9am and she was lying flopped out next to me as usual.
I went downstairs and was only gone about 15 mins and when i came back up she was sitting on the floor acting strange...i can't quite explain how but I just knew something wasn't right. I got a packet of treats (my illness test) and rattled the bag but she didn't run over like she normally does. I offered her one but she just refused and ran off into a little box to hide. I got her out and picked her up, checked her over and can't find anything externally wrong. Felt her tummy and that feels fine, put her on the floor and she ran off into the other bedroom and under the bed. She did a tiny bit of sniffing but then just lay down. She normally binkys around! I got some carrot because it's her favourite thing in the whole world and she has turned her nose up at that. I was just thinking about ringing the vet when she hopped out, came over to me then hopped off and peed on the carpet. She has never done that before and always uses her litter tray
I know the answer is obvious i.e take her to the vet, but should I leave her a couple of hours then take her or take her now?? I only say this because i have a major tendency to over react..so I never know if I am jumping the gun so to speak.
Help please....
