My Fancy Rat

Question
Well it seems when i out her down she doesn't want to use her front legs. She is also slowed down. I don't know but have i feed her to much and she can't? I want to know why she is doing this.

Answer
Shannon, it sounds like she may have a tumor on her pituitary gland. This can cause her the inability to use her front paws and also they cannot feed themselves if they cannot hold their food.  You must provide for her baby food for her to lick.  Also I would like you to read my site, sandyscrittercity.com and read about this pituitary tumor so you can understand what to expect from it and how to help keep her comfortable.  There is no cure for it.
