Dramatically singing Rafiki A Thousand Years and well he sure responded to it
Went to see grandma!! My grandma unfortunately didn’t remember holding him even though she did dozens of times. She has dementia but when she held him her eyes lit up
This is him and my grandma before covid
Before any judgement about the ferrets I was in the hospital when it happened and it was my mom who was home when the incident happened
I am extremely stressed out. I have been fighting an infection with Rafiki for 5 months now. He has been on antibiotics for 2 months now and nothing has changed. He was attacked by my ferrets on accident and got a scratch on his eye. He has been having strange behaviors lately. He started glass surfing constantly. I take him out and he will do the same thing on the wall. Is this a sign of pain or discomfort. Then he will fall asleep and when I come to pick him up to take him to go to bed he will puff up and black beard hiss and try to bite me. He never has done that in his life. I dont know if he is scared because of the ferret attack or pain I just really dont know is there any advice I can get for this. Im extremely stressed out. Ive been fighting for him for 5 months syringe feeding. I just dont know what to do anymore. We take him to vet after vet and they just dont know what is wrong. Any advice?
Rafiki has a liver infection. Im hoping we caught it in time. Im terrifed we Didnt and were going to lose him and itll be my fault for not taking him in sooner and getting blood work sooner. I did my dbt skills checking the facts to try to help the situation but it only made me realize theres a 50/50 chance. Theres only two possible outcomes. He lives or dies. So that didn’t help too much. Im praying I dont lose him

History of Rafiki
We got him from A-Z pets in August 2019. That store is basically a store where people give their pets up and they sell them along with they get pets from other places. So when I first got him he was a strong eater. We took him to the vet and he was perfectly healthy. He ate greens and bugs daily. He is about 2 years old WE THINK, In novemver we went back because he didnt poop for 3 weeks which I realized was his normal. We got a fecal done and it was negitive. He went into brumation intermittently and got out in January. Since he woke up in January he stopped eating completely. He isnt in brumation, he basks, he is somewhat active, when he is out he will run around until he loses energy then I will put him away and he basks. We recently have been feeding him a/d urgent care, chicken baby food, and other safe veggie baby foods all by syringe. Now I need to see another exotic vet since my low income one wont see me anymore and I dont have enough money until the relief check comes. So I would extremely appreciate donations even if its a few dollars.
Love Rafiki
Im linking my pay pal incase anyone wants to donate 😔 Id really appreciate anything
Hi guys... Rafiki needs to go to the vet and its going to be expensive and I only have about 300$ at the moment. I wont be able to take him till the relief check comes and that wont be for another month or two since I didnt do direct deposit. If anyone can donate to even a few dollars I would really appreciate it. Ill post what is wrong with Rafiki in my next post.
ANYONE WITH BEARDED DRAGON EXPERIENCE PLEASE HELP
Im so upset I have a headache and Desperately need advice, my bearded dragon hasn’t eaten in 2 months and ive been syringe feeding him for the past week. He has not eaten on his own yet at all. Im pretty upset because the vet is out of ideas and doesn’t know what to do anymore. She wants me to stop syringe feeding to see if he would eat but he wont. I still have to persuade with the syringe. Im absolutely terrfied because the last time an animal didnt eat she ended up having stomach cancer and we had to put her down. Im terrifed this is happening again. She refuses to do blood work since there is nothing physically wrong with hiM. Should I keep syringe feeding to nourish him or should I stop. I WILL get a second opinion but I have no idea when I will get in since its on emergency basis. I really need advice
He ate for the first time on his own in 2 months.
We took a car ride instead of being in the carrier
