hi guys, it's been almost a week now since i went to the vet. i got the results of his test, they couldn't find any bacteria, but unfortunatly that doesn't mean that there isn't any. but he refuses to eat i really tried everything,and now he's turning a bit yellow/orange and his muscules start shivering because he now has got a calcium shortage,so we started forcing him to eat, because i can't whait any longer for him to start eating again, so i now have to force it in it's mouth, but if he gets the change he spits it out right away, i tried lots of love and i even became mad of him but he looks at me in a way that says GO TO HELL, he's just stressing us. it really looks like that, he's still mad about going to the vet and me having to throw away all of his accesoires. but that's for his own health because it can't spread his infection this way. i even promised him a realy big garden cage because he doesn't have a cage outside jet, but he doesn't care. it looks like he doesn't want us to help him...tomorrow i'll be going to the vet again, to see if they can help us a bit with his eating problem.i am really curious how he will behave there...
