I was just watching tv and heard some loud raspy noise. Turns out my 4 years old butter pastel girl was having something I looked a lot like empty stomach regurgitation. Basically having contraction throughout the whole body while keeping her mouth wide open and giving out bubbly raspy sound.
At that pint I noticed she defecated all over her cage, some solid, some quite not.
She ate 4 days ago and shed well 2 days ago. Between those two I had to repeat the treatment with permethrin (I use BioKill as PAM isn't available, it's actually milder as it's half as concentrated) for mites. Just took her out of the enclosure and placed her in a tub, remove water, change paper substrate, spray all with BioKill and wait half an hour before putting her back. The water went back the day after.
She's in a 95x60 cm (37x23") homemade plywood 5 enclosure closet. Temps are 32c (89f) on the heat cable basking area and 27c (80f) on the other side with a 60% humidity. She's 1.7 kg and ate a 120g medium rat.
She's going to the vet on Monday for sure, I've also kept some of her stool. Taking her in during the weekend would cost me 100e more. Should I do it?
I'm quite worried
