Mouse makes clicking noises

Question
hello
I am desperate to find out what is up with my mouse, I have 2 fancy mice and they are about 3-4 months old, in the last few days the healthier more active of the two has started making these crackly clicking noises, she has always been a chatty little thing but this is a bit more random and I'm worried she might have some sort of respiratory infection? I cant afford much vet treatment but I really care for her, I've searched the internet and I think its either that she's happy or has an infection? its really loud and u can hear her from the other side of the room! what should I do? is she ill?

Answer
Dear Jaz,

Yes she is very sick and could die. But it is an easy fix at the vet. They will give you antibiotics and as long as it isn't too late, she should be fine. Antibiotics really are miracle drugs.

Get her to the vet as fast as possible.

Good luck and good health to her.

Squeaks,

Natasha
