I havent been around alot lately, so i'm getting to post this now. Last Wednesday my 04 baby bp Sway passed away. She had not eaten in 5 weeks, and only once before that. We had been to the vet only the previous Friday and he said everything was ok except that she was dangerously underweight. I had tried pre-killed, f/t, and yes .. even a live mousie to get her to eat. She just didnt want to have anything to do with them. The Saturday after the vet, i tried opening her mouth and helping her eat. She wasnt having any of that, so i left her alone. I tried to let her feed on her own again last Tuesday. The mouse was definitely smaller than her girthiest point, and she hit it and ate it. I was very happy and hoped that we were on our way to recovery. Wednesday morning when i got up, i went to check on Sphinx and Sway ( still in quarantine ). I noticed a foul smell in the air and found that she had regurgitated the mouse. When i went to get her out of the tank, i discovered that she was dead. She was taken to the vet on Wednesday to have the necropsy done. I should get the results back tomorrow. This is something i should have had done when Homer ( my BCI ) died, but didnt. She was a great little girl and always loved to be held. She will be missed by me and the rest of my family.
Sphinx and Andy are doing fine and will be taken in for another check up later this week, just to be on the safe side reguardless of what the necropsy finds.
