With metacam, it can be quite harsh and cause stomach upsets too. It is always hard but I'd be considering her quality of life after you have had a chat with the more specialised vet. I don't mean to come over harsh at all, having rats they get a common thing called hind leg degeneration and they can be totally well but the extra energy, not being able to get around like they should does take its toll. Some I let go sooner than others, you get that feeling in your gut to "know".

Keep us posted and good luck x
Thank u so much.
