Default Buster's poorly :(

Buster's not having a very merry Christmas. He has a case of 'head tilt'. We don't know the cause of this yet as we've only been able to see an emergency vet at the moment, he has a visit with our normal vet on Friday. He's feeling a bit sorry for himself but he's eating and drinking fine.

Aww....poor Buster! Good to hear he's still eating and drinking but I hope he's soon back to normal.

Head tilt is quite common in rats. Once they have it there is rarely a cure. My daughter had 6 rats and one had head tilt. It lived the longest of the 6.

Here is something you may find helpful.
