Bird Sick, Commissions Open
7 years ago
★ ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════ ★ HHhhhhh just when I think it's kind of ok. Can never catch a break.
I took our cockatiel to the vet last week for a general check up and to get her nails clipped. I noticed some changes in behavior and poops so I wanted to see if she was sick. Honestly she wasn't acting sick at the time this was just a precaution.
Vet put her on medication and commented about her nose being a little crusty. He ran no tests.
As SOON as we started this medication she stopped eating normally, sleeps a lot, barely vocalizes. It's a pain in the ass to give her medication and usually she's very good about taking medicine. It's obvious she HATES it. I usually give her millet when I give her medicine, it makes sure she's actually ingesting the medicine and not spitting it out. But she has no interest in millet until much later when she's calmed down. She barely touches her regular food.
I looked up the medication on parrot forums, people say it makes them feel nauseous so that's why they may act this way. Made me feel a little better.
I had planned to take her in for a follow up after her medication was done. To be sure.
But today she started panting heavily and it worried the shit out of me. I immediately called the vet, we're taking her in tomorrow morning. She does is on and off. Mouth open and tail bobbing very fast like she's winded.
I didn't really give her millet to monch on throughout the day. I did this morning but it fell to the bottom of her cage. But I saw in her food dish she ate some so I didn't think much of it. I gave her millet recently and she just pigged out like she was starving and I felt so bad. It's like the millet is the only thing she'll eat right now.
I don't even think we have enough money for this appointment. I can't transfer any funds since it's a Friday. But I do NOT want to wait this out.
The vet we take her to is $65 for the appointment itself plus any other tests and medications they give us. Which usually ends up being around $100 or more.
I'd really appreciate if people would consider commissioning me or to signal boost this ;;
Money wise since I can't even transfer it to my bank it's useless but the way my birds condition is right now we're definitely going to being taking her back to the vet for follow ups or if she's still sick.
I just
Didn't think she'd decline like this.
