We ended up taking Cooper to the vet again on Tuesday evening. She had been losing weight and not eating. When we got to the vet she vomited what she did eat. So she was checked in overnight for fluids and feedings. Our vet did a fecal test as well. The next day we found out that Cooper has avian gastric yeast, so she’s on meds for that now. And what a difference they made.
A not very good photo of Cooper being picked up from the vet’s office.When we got her home, Cooper was full of energy. She even did 3 loop the loops on the little perch Harry made for her. We gave her a bit of food and put her to bed.Here she is after eating her mash today. She is still in her “tub” where she will be for at least 10 days. She can visit with the budgies for a bit, but only from her tub (she needs to be quarantined). Seeing the budgies eating stimulates her appetite. Here’s a little video of her eating next to them. We’re so happy she’s back with us and are hoping the third time is the charm!
SO happy to hear Cooper is feeling better! I will continue to keep her in my thoughts and pray for a fast and complete recovery. 😀
Thanks Iva. She’s doing much better today. She just needs to keep it up : ).
That hearty appetite must be a good sign! We’re glad the vet figured out what was wrong and treated it. And that Cooper responded so quickly and favorably to her meds. Thanks so much for keeping us up to date.
Yes, I think so too. Hopefully we can keep her away from the vet for awhile :).
Oh No – not again! How scary can Cooper Get…I’m happy that your vet discovered what was wrong, and treated it immediately, and that Cooper rallied so well. I pray she makes a Full recovery Soon! Love her so much…
Thanks, I’ll pass that on to her! She’s definitely got us on a roller coaster. Hopefully it’s only good news from here on out :).
I love you, Cooper!
