Hello, Well, I have another problem with Willow. Every now and then she coughs (like she is going to vomit) and I will give her hair ball formula and all is fine the next day. she has very fluffy fur so that is understandable. Just this morning as I was reading FML actually, she ran under my computer desk and started hacking again. (I guess it would be yesterday then) This time it was every minute for 5 or 6 minutes she hacked. I fed her some hair ball stuff which she graciously licked off my finger and then hacked up again. She hadn't been out of her cage for 10 minutes that she went back in it and went to sleep. She always wants to be out in the morning but she hasn't even played today. I know it's still early to tell but does this sound like anything serious? maybe the hairball wore her out? by the way her little red tumor on her foot has gone back down is no longer red. it is pink like the rest of her pads. I think that it must be a mast cell tumor that had been inflamed and is normal again. any info or suggestions on her gagging would be appreciated.
