I woke up this Morning to find Mandy acting weird in her cage, I let her out at 6 am as everyday, and as soon as she got out, she started running in circles around her care, very agitated.
Now she can barely walk, she is very wobbly, her pooing has stopped dry and she is barely eating. I am giving her water through a syringe, gave her metacam for any pain.

Called my vet, said it could be heart related, and now I am just plain devastated. I haven't stopped crying for 3 hours now. We have a vet appointment for tomorrow 11am, just here hoping that she gets to tomorrow alive.

Damn it.... :cry:

It could be a variety of things. Is there anyway she could see a good vet tonight?

*squishes tight* I hope she keeps fighting.

This one is the good vet. She is also trying to track down the radiographer, as he might be on vacation.
It's amazing that after having won so many fights with her, we come to this. I am not going to give up on her till the last, but I was hoping the last would come 4/6 years from now, and now while she is so young :(
 
She was furiously eating some hay and some greens. Made 3 big pools of pee, but no poops whatsoever, which is to be expected from her, as any stress makes her jump into stasis.
She is still very weak, can't keep her head up for long, and walking is quite complicated for her now, but the fact that she is eating at least gives me a bit of hope.

I've been thinking though, for being a heart condition, her breathing is very normal now, so I really hope its not that.

This is going to be one rough night for the both of us.

And many thanks for the vibes, they are so much needed :)
 
Leaving now for an emergency vet, she started with convulsions and now she has a massive wry neck.
Could EC have snuck upon me?
 
Well, things went bad. Who knows what caused the convulsions, but it severely affected her brain. She lost sensitivity in all extremities, her eyes didn't react to light, etc.
I had to make the horrible decision to put her to sleep. I already buried her in an old neighbor's backyard.

And so, here I am, crying myself apart, typing this, and missing her terribly already.

Take care people.
 
I'm sorry to hear that Mandy had to be helped across the Bridge. It's never an easy decision and always more difficult when it comes on so suddenly.
Hugs to you. ((((((Hugs))))))) Binky free, Mandy.
 
I am so sorry that you lost her. It is devastating to loose a pet that suddenly. I had a bunny Chrissy die suddenly from a seizure. It was violent but very quick. That was 8 years ago and still haunts me. Binky free little one.
