| I had to take my Trixie to the ER vet My baby Trixie is only 9mo old. Saturday night she seemed to be just kind of mushy. She had been out with the other two nuts in the backyard all day with my dh so I figured she was tired. Yesterday she was still mushy and very sleepy. I checked her gums and they were pale so I gave her some nutri-cal. I also gave a little water. We actually brought it over to her. She perked up a bit but not her usual self. We gave her some canned food (they usually just eat kibble) and she ate it. So Ok she's fed...she drank...I gave nutrical... I'm out! She slept in my daughters room last night and was mushy again this morning. I took her right in and they did bloodwork and an x-ray. Her temp was up to 105. Idiot me gave them ...I know please don't yell...rawhides on Friday because it was Coco's birthday and we took him to the store to get treats. I don't know what I was thinking. Now I'm thinking she had a blockage or something. Well after the x-rays the doctor says there is no blockage yay!!! All of her internal organs look fine. She is not hypoglysemic so she doesn't need the nutracal any more. He checked for Lyme disease and that was negative. He is sending out the Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever bloodwork so we will wait for that. He gave her a shot of antibiotics and fluids under her skin in 2 places. I have a prescription for antibiotics also. He seems to think its a bacterial infection that's why she has a fever. I just have to make sure she is eating and drinking water. I'm a little nervous though she is my girlie girl and I hate to see her this way. I just want to cry. Please keep her in your thoughts. If she is not better in 24-48 hours I have to bring her back in.

| Sorry this is happening to you. I know how it feels, to be waiting for them to get better, and every second feels like hours. I think she will be ok. Have faith. |

| I'm very sad now because my daughter just got home from school and Trix didn't even move not even her long taily. I tried to stand her up to show my daughter her lumps under her skin with the fluid and she just collapsed back down on the bed. I'm going to try to give her more food now. I figure a little at a time I don't want to push it. I'd rather her keep it down than throw it up.
