clicking noise

[SQ]

I presently have 6 ratties on baytril + doxy .... and a couple on lasix as sound very conjested.

Robin has been on the antibiotics since Sat March 21 and seems worse as she now has a clicking noise on one side when I hold her up to listen. It started late yesterday.
It sort of sounds like her teeth are chattering ... but they aren't.
Never heard a sound like this before ... has anyone?

Will be trying to get a perscription for zithro in the am and starting them on it ....
hoping it helps.
Three of the girls, including Robin, are 1.5 years old and their littermate, Debbie, was put to sleep in Feb. after being treated for CHF since early fall.

Poor baby probably has a bad abscess in one lung. I wonder if a bit of pred would help with the inflammation. It's hard to know whether to use pred for fear of weakening her immune response.

Ya, I've heard the clicking... it's not good. But it's sometimes hard to tell if it's coming from their nose or their lungs, if it's still in the nose, you've got time to catch it... in the lungs that will be hard. I'd definitely add the Zithro.
