 I think Riley is hypoglycemic...
My fiance woke me up at about 4 this morning (its now almost 7) worried about Riley. He sat her up and she just kinda wobbled to the ground. We just moved so we don't really have anything in our house at the moment, so he had to leave and search for some honey. While he was gone, she just got worse. She became completely limp and she kept her head over to the side and wouldn't move it (it almost looked like she snapped her neck). So he finally got back with some honey. At this point, I'm am so thankful that we have sickly animals because I have collected quite a few syringes. I cleaned one really well and put some honey in it and force fed her. I gave her some water in between and when she looked a little better, I mixed the water and honey and force fed her that too. I've been keeping an eye on her ever since then. She's thrown up twice, but I think that's because of being force fed everything. She's asleep right now, but she's doing a lot better than a few hours ago. My only problem is that I have a very important weekend at work (starting today) and I don't want to leave her side. However, I can't take her to the vet without this very important weekend as it will bring in quite a bit of money. I guess what I'm saying is... help? |
