Re: aLI HAS A MAJOR RI! PLEASE HELP Hurry hurry hurry!
RI's can move really fast and based soley on your description I say take her to the VET IMMEDIATELY...not that it adds incentive but you have a $1000 animal at stake.
Re: aLI HAS A MAJOR RI! PLEASE HELP Hurry hurry hurry!
For now, the accepted recommendation is to bump the heat up to 95 or so reduce the humidity if you have too much, and if you have none I would suggest some.
I know that people say that high humidity is one factor of RI..but I have not found that to be so. Other's may have a different opinion.

you know what they are going to make an appointment for me! i don't care how god damn bussy they are.
Re: aLI HAS A MAJOR RI! PLEASE HELP Hurry hurry hurry!
Increase the humidity to help break up the mucus - don't lower it. Do increase the heat - and walk into your vets when they open - this isn't an "appointment" situation - this is an emergency situation.
Once you get her treated - you need to examine how you're housing her and what improvements you can make to prevent this from happening again.
Re: aLI HAS A MAJOR RI! PLEASE HELP Hurry hurry hurry!
I'd say increase temps and bump up humidity a bit.
Just make sure you get that girl into the vet.
Re: aLI HAS A MAJOR RI! PLEASE HELP Hurry hurry hurry!
you have been good advice so i wont repeat.
Just wanted to send good luck your way.
Hope it works out. i would just want to say make sure they do a culture so the correct antibiotic is perscribed. The bacterias that cause RI's react to specific medications. there is no one med does it all. Been there done that.
Re: aLI HAS A MAJOR RI! PLEASE HELP Hurry hurry hurry!

Re: aLI HAS A MAJOR RI! PLEASE HELP Hurry hurry hurry!
Don't take an appointment! Be waiting at the door when they open! It's an emergency, make them treat it like one!
