Mojo has been receiving daily nasal flushing with gentamicin mixed with saline. He is drinking a scary amount of water. I came home yesterday and his water bottle was empty and I thought it had leaked because the whole bottom of his cage was soaked.
But I put a new bottle in and he has already drank a 1/4 bottle.
When I have to flush him we have to turn him over and gobs of water came out of his mouth.
I know this stuff has to taste nasty and maybe he is trying to get rid of the taste by drinking so much but it is scaring me. The vet does not open until 10 and I just would love to hear from someone it is OK or not unusual. Gary? Anyone. UGH.
