Noticed last Saturday, took him to the vet right away. the vet injected him with antibiotics on saturday and I had a cycle of 4 days for home. By the 4th day he was way better, cleaned his mouth out and it was barley noticeable. Kept him really warm also, aroun 98*. Last night I put a live fuzzy in with him since thats what he had been eating and it took a whiole but hes full now. The RI is almost completely gone, hes way more energetic, not that he was super still before but hes hard to handle now. Just like a puppy, I swear.

Congrats on getting him through his RI

thank you. Monday was the bottom, I was worried. then Tuesday he looked better then Wednesday very good. I gave him a live fuzzy and turned out the lights (hes got infrared night lights) either it was the live mouse, getting mostly over an RI, or eating in the dark in the middle of the night. The breeder fed him live fuzzies early morning. I want to switch to F/T but I guess that day will come later. Thanks all.
