Jack is more than likely dying, which is heartbreaking for me. Like HUGE important because I can't help him. I wrote this at the
hamsters community:
Okay, so I'm a bad hammy mom, but I don't have the money to take Jack to the vet, but he's been really, really non-moving today. Like he just kinda exists and sits somewhere. I'm really, really worried. It just started today because last night he was in his ball going everywhere in the house on his usual route. Now he's just leaning up against me on the desk. I just noticed a massive pee on the desk (cleaned up) and it's just really, really unusual for him. I don't understand what is wrong. Help? It's like he has no energy. He's like curled up, has been since I took him out of the ball, and then he was sitting next to me in it before he was out, which is like anti-Jack. I'm afraid he's dying. It came out of nowhere.
And I say "really, really" too much. Sorry.
Edit: I just noticed a big wet spot in what I'm assuming is his peeing corner (since I just changed it Friday). I cleaned out the corner and as he was collecting some food, he seemed to be half-dead. This can't be good.
This is so...I can't help him and I feel like a failure as a mom. *shakes head* So I'm gonna be pretty quiet from awhile.
EDIT! ATTENTION! He's suddenly better. I don't know what made it better, but he is. He's running around in his little ball for all he's worth. Peeing teeny amounts and pooping properly. It's weird how he's just...better. I have no idea why. He looked nearly dead. I did find a piece of corn that he had taken out to eat, but he could have put that in his mouth when I feed him a couple hours ago and I was afraid he had no food. I don't know what hell changed but I'm not questioning it. Just being utterly thankful.
