Thank you all for your kind words.

My first thought was also arthritis but it came on too sudden. It's almost like the treatment on her teeth under gas was too much for her system to handle and she's shutting down.
She also has fur loss on her belly which happened very quickly and would be another visit to the vet but the teeth took priority.

I gave her the metacam and water this morning but then had to go to work and leave her in the care of my OH who is very close to Betsy.

Couldn't cancel my shift because of the nature of my work so had a chat with Betsy before i left. Betsy was in her ceramic hide with her eyes closed and just wanted to sleep.
