    Stuffy Nose?

    My Cinnamon Ball has a like human Stuffy Nose. When he's out of his tub he does heavy breathing. Is this a RI??? If so is there away to get rid of it without going to the Dr's?

    Unless you see mucus, mucus bubbles, mouth gaped while breathing, wheezing and popping sounds while breathing. heavy breathing alone isnt really a sign of of an RI.

    Heavy breathing can be a result of stress. If you can see the body expanding and retracing fast then that will explain your heavy breathing. Now if your able to hear it then thats a different story.

    Should never hear your snake breath, unless it is indeed a RI.
