Okay so how do you know if a rat has epilepsy and how do you treat it? Mine shudder from time to time (full body shudder leaching forwards) but no ear infection and eyes wide open and come out of it pretty quickly...
No other symptoms. though it was just hiccups. Now I'm wondering

Mine shudder from time to time (full body shudder leaching forwards) but no ear infection and eyes wide open and come out of it pretty quickly... No other symptoms. though it was just hiccups. Now I'm wondering J When Atlas has a fit, his body goes completely rigid and he then starts kicking out all his legs and opening and closing his mouth very quickly. It's horrible to watch and his movements are very fast and jerky, I have to hold him still until the fit passes so he doesn't fall all over the cage and hurt himself. Afterwards he is somewhat confused and sleepy for a while, then he comes around and is ok. He is treated with phenobarbitol, which helps make his fits less severe and less often but he does still have fits every now and then. It doesn't sound like your boys are having fits, luckily it does just sound like hiccups  |

Thank you for all the hedgehog info, Yakousei (I just typed that from memory, scuse me for any error). Hedgehogs are not social creatures so he must be quite happy with mere humans for company Luner, your smiley dog pic is so cheery, what a luv |

Bobby will be 3 on August 19th (incidently my wedding annivery date and the reason the wife fell in love with him and we had to have him) and minnie is 2 in december , we added the moo on the end of her name as she is always being called a little cow as she loves drinking peoples cups of tea or coffe if there left unattended. Both soft as grease and spoilt rotten. Zulu was wonderful, in all her 15 years she never snapped or even growled at anyone , not even my eldest when he was a toddler and use to climb on her back and pull her ears until she stood up and he would try and hold on while she walked round the room |
