Need advice please!!
Help! My hamster is having weird symptoms. She is about a year and a half old I believe I'm not sure. But anyways her symptoms are not moving and when she moves she scoots not using her back legs, she lost control of her bladder the 2nd time, (it's happened twice now the first time she didnt loose control of her bladder), her eyes are closed, she isn't eating or drinking very much, she's lost a lot of weight, she's very lethargic. Weird thing is she snaps out of it withing 45 minutes. We took her to the vet and they're treating for the treatable so like inflammation, diarrhea, and infection/virus. If she keeps it up we'll have to take her to a specialist. They said it could be neurological, this deadly virus they get, or the treatable. They gave me medicine for infection, inflammation, and diarrhea. They said to also change her food to pellets, and put vinegar around her cage so she'll stop chewing it. Any thoughts?
