Sooo I just got back from the vet. The good news is, the vet says she seems perfectly healthy. Body condition is good, scale coloration is good. activity level is good, no wheezing, no mucus in her mouth....
The bad news is, I’m an idiot. He thinks she choked on water initially, and then when I took her out to examine her, the movement/stress caused her to regurgitate what she had just been drinking. Hence the drool and the bubbles.
He is having me keep her on upped temps and under a close watch for the next few days. If she eats this weekend and doesn’t exhibit any further symptoms, he thinks she will be fine. He didn’t feel comfortable prescribing antibiotics based on what he saw at the exam (although he acknowledged that the “incident” was bizarre). He’s going to call me on Tuesday to get an updated report.
