I'm so worried about my little Crowley, so he shed last night and took the rest of the night off, he seemed normal, he has a bit of blood in his shed but that always happens and I hear that is normal. Today I took him out and had him in his room for a couple hours and he seemed fine. I then took him to hang out on the couch. At first it seemed like he was enjoying his massages (I don't rub hard or anything), he was even waggling his tail. It seemed like touching his neck (he doesn't usually mind getting his head or neck touched) at a certain spot made him go turbo, he would move really fast. I thought maybe he was hurt so I was barley touching him while petting him to see if he had any sore spots. He'd start moving fast anytime I touched his neck and he started twitching when I touched a spot on his back.
I necked him and he did a double twitch, like a jerking movement and he jerked pretty hard. I am so worried that he is hurt, nothing looks swollen or feels any different. I tried to get it on camera but of course he only did the twitching off camera. I put him back for the night as I don't want to hurt him anymore if he is hurting. Could it be sore muscles from being in a hide for over a week while in shed and not stretching? I was able to neck him a few more times with no twitching. He went around my hand and suddenly twitched really hard, his whole front of his body moved like half a foot away when he twitched.
Is there something really wrong with my baby? I'm just so worried, I've never seen him behave like this before. He normally loves my massages, it looked like he did at first till the twitching. Again, I don't massage hard enough to hurt him in any way and I've been doing it for years with no problems. I hope my little Crowley is okay.
