Hello everyone. =
My last post was of Kira's swollen vulva and going to the vet that weekend.=
Since then, we had a total computer disaster. After long debate, we deci=
ded to wait on testing Kira since her vulva went back to normal so fast and=
have her tested sometime this month. Goku was tested on the first visit d=
ue to his increasingly aggressive behavior towards the girls, and his level=
was 27.2.....he has adrenal. =
But now, Lou-Lou is the one with the problem. When we got home today, we l=
et them out to play as usual, and I noticed this dark spot on her tummy. T=
hinking she had maybe stuck to something in the litter box I turned her ove=
r to clean her off. What I saw scared me...about the size of my fingernail=
and/or a dime, was a red/purple spot with a small amount of dried (what ap=
pears to be) blood in the center of the spot. We looked all over their cag=
e, there was no trace of where she might have been hurt or bled at. Whenev=
er any of them get rough, they very rarely go near the stomach. Did one of=
them hurt her? Could she have been chewing at an itch and went too far? =
Her pictures are in the album called Lou-Lou Question Pics. Please tell me=
what you think has happened. We are going to keep her in a seperate cage =
tonight and tomorrow in case she did get hurt by one of them. How should I=
clean her stomach...should I wait...they've never been hurt before. Pleas=
e give me your thoughts. =
Thank you for your help, =
Keldah
