Paranoia

[AzureN1ght]

I had a nightmare last night that Auryn had an RI. So, I've been checking in on him all day long. I looked in on him again just now and he was stretched out and had his head stretched up over his water bowl. I didn't know if he was drinking when I disturbed him or if he was propping up his head (a sign of RI)... I'm not sure if I'm just being paranoid, or if I have something to worry about.

I'm worried that the moving him from home to school and getting his enclosure set up in my closet (the only non-AC, stable temp space) and getting the temps/humidity right stressed him out to the point where he got an RI... Maybe the worry caused the dream and I'm just being uber paranoid... AGH!

Hopefully you are just being paranoid and Auryn is just fine . Your "paranoia" just shows how much you care about him.

Best way to check if you are concerned is to gently open her mouth and if you see mucos or stringy looking saliva you got a problem.


You should be fine. Your dreams are just your subconscious fears coming to the surface. Don't give them anymore energy. Think positive not negative.

Don't feed fear, feed happiness

Awww....sorry you're feeling stressed!


My ball props his head on his water bowl all the time...'The better to see you' says he.

It's time for some pics once things settle down *hint hint*

I'd go with Raul's advice and check out Auryn's mouth. I'm sure everything is fine, but that's a very simple way to confirm it.

Just be glad your not pregnant and beating your poor husband upon awakening for doing things in your dreams.
