Joey's not right

My lil girl Joey isnt not right - shes gone how Mr Ham did before he sadly passed.

She ALWAYS sleeps in her nest but today shes been sleeping anywhere in her cage - I thought it was due to the heat so i cooled the room down but no change.

I got her out of the cage to have a look at her and when i put her down shes very wobley when shes walking and very slow.

Her breathing is also rapid and shes just laying there with her eyes shut!

Ive noticed she has alot of cream colours discharged over her bum - so im not sure if this as anything to do with it.

Ive called the vets but they dont have any appointments today and I have to wait till tomorrow morning.

Im not to sure why im writing this as I know deep down I think she will pass at some point today

It's always best to have faith. Just keep her company, fed and watered and see how it goes. I'm wishing you all the best.

So sorry Sarah to hear Joey is unwell.

There isn't much I can say other than just keep her as comfortable as possible.

sarah - lots of love to the little one. I hope that things have improved. Fingers crossed for the best outcome for her in the morning at the vet. x

Will be thinking of you Sarah - I hope she is ok, I really do. *hugs* x

She's still holding on in there, which im shocked about, I knew she was a fighter but i didnt know it was this much! Bless her!

You have such little Trooper hams Sarah, goes to show just how much they love it with you

Joey will pass when she is ready and as much as its hard to deal with, she'll appreciate spending her time doing what she loves most, even just the simple everyday things xx

well I thought id update this thread since ive found the time to get back on HC

Joey is still with me - I have no idea what was wrong with her on that day but I really thought it was her time. She was back to herself in the morning.
Its been a week since this scare and she seems fine now, well she just sleeps alot more then she did. The little madam has really confused me!
