My little Macie passed away tonight. She got sick very quickly. Yesterday she wasn't eating much & I got her out last night and hand fed her some romaine. Today is my morning that I have a sitter come and sit with all my kids and I go run errands. I was running late getting out the door so I gave them their veggies but didn't check on either of them. When I got home this afternoon I went to go check on her and she had no poos in her hidey and was walking funny & very laborsome. I called the vet and told them I was on the way. The vet dianosed her with a URI & ear mites. She gave me drops and a antibiotic. I asked about a probiotic and she said they just suggest using yogert (?!) I would really like some advice on that one because I thought they were lactose intolerant. Anyhow... We got home & I got my kids fed & gave her the meds and pellet mush. I put her back in her cage and thought to myself that she wasn't gonna make it through the night. I prayed over her that God would either heal her or help her pass quickly & painlessly. About 10 minutes later I went to check on her and she had passed away. I am thankful that my prayers were answered. Pray for, send positive thoughts, or whatever you believe for my girls. They are 5 & 8 and madly in love with Macie. They were already asleep when she passed, I have to tell them in the morning. They are gonna be heartbroken. She was gone to soon. At least the last couple weeks of her life were fun & happy.

And you're correct they should NEVER be given yogurt.

Oh that's so sad, I'm sorry for your loss.
I'll prey for you to have wisdom in how to tell your girls about it.

I'm sorry. It's always so hard to loose a pet. I'll be thinking of you and your girls. Hugs for all or you!
