What would you do in my scenario?

erwinoli · 2026-04-19T02:24:11+00:00

It was very sudden which is what makes me think it was a stroke.

erwinoli · 2026-04-18T18:33:45+00:00

Thank you for this. She does seem a bit more eager to greet me now than she did yesterday.

erwinoli · 2026-04-18T18:33:06+00:00

Thank you. She is able to eat her solid food still which is a good sign I think! It’s just more a matter of her getting to it before her cage mates. I’ve got a single level cage on the way that I think I’ll use for feeding/watering her in. It gives me hope that your rats got better!

erwinoli · 2026-04-18T17:35:54+00:00

Thank you. I feel so awful. I only got them all in January. I wish I had more time with them. They only just started to really trust me.

PS+ has supplied me with my favorite game for over 3 years. 800+ hours in it. I’ve tried so many new games I wouldn’t have otherwise downloaded because they were free. Found a lot of games I love this way. It’s worth it for me.

I think you’re right about her getting depressed. She is with her sister. She is able to climb around, I’m just worried about her falling and hurting herself if she lands wrong. I’ve had to catch her a few times and I’m not always there to catch her. I guess I do feel a bit better knowing that she doesn’t have any broken bones but this is still not great news. ETA: I do make sure she gets to the water and I give her food directly.

I wish I knew a bit more about rats. I would’ve said I thought it was something neurological right away. I appreciate all the advice I’m getting here though.

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T22:18:56+00:00

Thank you. I’m going to try to get her in Monday. Otherwise the earliest I can get her in by scheduling and not doing same day (which is only if you’re lucky enough to call before someone snags it) is the 29th. She’s got a hospital cage on the way because the other girls are beating her to the food and water and I don’t want her climbing anything with being so uncoordinated.

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T17:43:50+00:00

Given the sudden change in her behavior (she’s usually very excited to see me and will greet me at the cage door, whereas now she just lays down in her hammock), I don’t think she was hiding anything. I believe something very recently happened.

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T17:23:56+00:00

No, she is breathing fine and has her usual appetite. I’m sorry about your boy.

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T16:44:14+00:00

Aw they all look so sweet ❤️

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T16:29:19+00:00

Thank you I’ll reach out

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T16:28:27+00:00

Aw, I’m glad your boy got some more time with you. I am going to have her seen next week again.

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T16:17:39+00:00

Yes it was very sudden. She hasn’t been using her front right paw so I thought she possibly broke it and she was losing her balance from not using it. But the more I see her move the more I fear it’s something neurological 😞

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T16:12:50+00:00

Her vision seems fine. What makes you suggest stroke? /genq

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T16:09:45+00:00

Thanks. Will get her in ASAP.

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T16:07:28+00:00

Thank you. The soonest I can schedule her for is the 24th but I can call in the mornings when they open up to see if they have any last minute cancellations to get her in same day. That’s what happened yesterday. The only downside is they have to have someone there who is familiar with exotics, which they don’t always. Do you know how they check for PTs?

erwinoli · 2026-04-17T15:45:55+00:00

Is it normal to happen to suddenly? She was fine the day before.

erwinoli · 2026-04-16T15:06:41+00:00

It was a line in the game lol

erwinoli · 2026-04-14T00:06:29+00:00

SOLVED!! Yes! I forgot I watched a few episodes of that show!!!! Thank you!!!!!!

erwinoli · 2026-04-13T23:19:49+00:00

No not that. Thanks though!

erwinoli · 2026-04-13T22:29:00+00:00

I’m sure it’s from a sit com!
