Cutie pie, so sweet asleep in your purse.

My purses are a favorite retreat.... He chewed the extra pocket right out of my Lancome bag.... that's ok.... my mom doesn't mind. :wink2:

He found his way into my pillow case last night... also a great spot to snooze in while mom works out. :cheeky:

Oh my goodness. what precious pictures!!! That boy is clearly so loved.

I was really pleased that I could get the last picture because it shows exactly the kind of relationship I have with Buddy.

Roquefort was also such a crasher... but he spent more of his time threatening the noses of his fellow cagemates when they tried cuddling on my lap too. Roquefort did not like "sharing" his mom. :laugh4:

I wish his body could feel as good as his emotions must! I wish his body was as strong and flawless as your love for him. Knowing how precious he is is going to take him as far as he is willing to go.

I hope so, Fidget. What matters most to me is that he is comfortable and feels secure.

It is so unfair that he is suffering from Myco. He will have these sneezing bouts. The last time I counted almost 80 little sneezes before he stopped.

(I asked the guy upstairs to "give him a break already!" ) :stickpoke:

:heart: he is adorable and clearly is adored :heart:

Thanks Ichigo. :rose:

He is adored. I spend as much time with him as I can... and as he wants.

He is still well enough to want to explore the condo before crashing on my lap.

He will leave a terrible gap when he goes.

Let's hope I can move in the next two years to a bigger place where my doctors will let me have rats again. Please keep your fingers crossed for me. :hugs:

Thank you, sweetie! :hugs:

I wish the pictures would do more justice to his coloring.

The champagne/rose contrast is amazing. He is a gorgeous boy! :love6:

He is a GORGEOUS boy indeed hun, and I think he's got QUITE the fan base here on the shack!

On pins and needles again today about my little guy. He has his follow up appointment tonight and he doesn't seem to be doing so well.

His fur goes from being semi-puffed to not at all. He has moments of energy followed by longer periods of tiredness.

He eats everything I give him but does not come out to play much anymore.

Last night, he got into my magazine basket and shredded my Victoria's Secret catalog. Then he went right back up to his cuddle box and didn't come back out. I stuck my hand in there and he came out to rest his body in the palm of my hand. He yawned, pretty ferociously, 5 times in less than a minute.

He doesn't have any porphyrin staining but his eyes are puffy and he isn't sleeping well.

He continues to heave when breathing, but doesn't always make sounds (at least not any that I can hear).

When I left the house, this morning, he was lying flat on his upper level and didn't come to say goodbye.

I have to be prepared for the worst tonight.

Please keep my boy in your thoughts and prayers. He is such a little trooper. I wish there were something more I could do for him. It's terrible to have to helplessly watch as myco makes his life more difficult. :tearful:
 
I'm sorry to hear he's not doing well, I have been following your thread and I feel like I know the little guy :sad3: You are doing everything possible and giving him the best home he could ask for! I will be thinking and praying for him today, hope all goes well :hugs:
 
HE'S STILL WITH ME!!!!!!!!!!!!! :bunnydance: :bunnydance: :bunnydance: :bunnydance: :bunnydance: :bunnydance: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:

He is not better and not worse so the Zithro mix is keeping him stable.

He was all over the place at the vet's office and although he is still "puffy", he does not appear to Dr. Richards to be suffering in any way.

Meds for life and no recheck until I start seeing signs of him getting worse.

He was very happy with his meds/yogurt, kale, and teklad when he got home.

He has also lost 25 grams and does not need to lose any more.

I will have my boy with me for Christmas. :heart:

Thank you everyone for your love, prayers and support. :love6:
 
hugs to u and your sweet boy .. u are in my thoughts and prayers .. and i will send him lots and lots of good energy :heart:
 
OMG his symptoms are exactly like Lulla's! Maybe she has myco. What with the hiccuping, breathing, puffing and the tiredness it sounds just like how she is acting. I guess I will know when I take her to the vet tomorrow...
Prayers for your little boy that he will miraculously be fine again! Or at least that he gets to live much longer <3 :hugs:
