But Shiro is looking MUCH better now, up and around more than she has been for several days, eating more, weighing a little more, walking better and just seeming to be in less general pain. Her fur also looks a lot more like it should, rather than the matted tangle it had become when she was at her weakest. On Monday evening she just collapsed on her side and lay there, unmoving. I honestly thought she was dying right in front of me. But she held on somehow and pulled through. We're not completely out of the woods yet, but she is looking much better and I'm hopeful. I also want to thank the Hamster Hideout folks for their most excellent and generous advice, and for Shiro's veterinarian, who was very concerned on her behalf and - I think - rushed the lab work that determined what was wrong with her (an intestinal parasite) and got her the right medicine. Shiro is a very determined little hamster, but I don't know if she would have made it if she hadn't had such a great team backing her up. Yeah, Monday pretty much sucked.
