Question
DearSandra,

My rat has been wheezing lately, and I am worried about him. I don't know what I should do to help him. Also, I'm not sure where to take him in the area to be seen.

Answer
Hi Morgan


What you can do to help him is find him a vet that knows how to treat rats. Please allow me to help and let me know your location so I know who to refer you to as far as vets go.

Is he eating and drinking ok or does he act sick? Has he ever been sick before and if so, what was wrong?
