For those of you who remember, might also remember my 2 igs, Rex and Goliath...Wel at about 3 am last night i went upstair, and Goliath was dark, at the bottom of his cage ( which he rarely goes down) and his 2 front arms were limp...

But just 2 hours earlier he was perfectly fine. Trying to jump on me when i open the cage door. Still green, all legs working...

So i immediately called the vet, but no answer, so my mom called them when she woke up, and they said to come right on in, they would postpone the surgeries, so they could see him, The vet said he looked too far off, but he'd do some blood work ,just to make sure that he couldnt be saved.

Last night, i could tell for myself, although i kept telling myself he'd be ok,but i really knew that he was too far gone. But what i dont get is...why was he acting perfectly fine, 2 hours earlier?

Well i think you all know the end result now...Goliath had to be put to sleep this morning...
