So this is my little girl ,Olive. She is turning 1 next month with her sister Pickle. Shes a Roan Dumbo rat, if any of you know her she is a proper people lover. She prefers human company out of her (now) 3 sisters, shes brill with the 2 other little babies.
Unfortunately my show winner is always the one that has things happen to her eg; she got an infected back from a bite twice, she started bleeding from her vagina about a week ago and if you dont know rats then it isn't normal. Doe's do not menstruate. Suspected UTI so anti-boticis was the answer. But... they didnt work.
She started bleeding heavy by Sunday night, it was like she had a clot stuck. I ring the vets today, asking if i should wait out for the anti boitics to work. They said i had to bring her in immediately. He then says she needs an emergency spay, but he wasnt comfortable doing it so he would advice Put to sleep(PTS). I said no and asked for a second opinion, that vet said the same. So i left with Olive, and made my way on the phone to my second vet, where he neutered my aggressive boys, i see him straight away. He says he suspects her womb is rupturing and she has stoned in her bladder. So we discuss treatment inc. Xrays, ultrasound, anaesthetic, stone removal and spaying. Prices up to £420.15.
I do not expect anyone to get near to that figure but i said yes because he wasnt wanted to PTS, I walked out and sobbed. I wasnt ready to let her go, it isnt her time yet. But with studying and working part time this was nearly my months wages. I would be very greatful even if i could rasie £50.
Thank you from me and Olive
