~UPDATE Post #194~Help! Cash isn't using her feet!

[Karighan]

I went about my morning routine as usual. Letting Cash out of her cage to roam the studio (It's birdproof, with the exception of my computer area), and she was fine. She fluttered about and went to her usual perch spot on the french doors while I went to the kitchen to make her breakfast. When I came back into the room, she was under my bed, and soared out to flounder and struggle to get up--holding her feet fisted underneath her.

This happened, literally, a span of five to ten minutes.

You need to keep her warm and quiet. Put her in a safe, quiet place while you get on the phone and get her to the vet ASAP. Do you have an avian vet or do you need help locating one?

Could she have burned her feet on anything?

 

[QP4CAG]

You need to get her to a vet ASAP!! Ohhh i hope everything is okay...sending warm wishes and prayers

 

[mrstweet]

Oh my. My only experience with something like this was when Monty ha@d a seizure.

 

[Birdiemarie]

She may have had a stroke or seizure as a result of maybe flying into something and hitting her head (just a possibility) Give her a drop or two of Kayro syrup to help with her electrolytes. If you have children's Pedialyte (mix 50/50 with water) offer some to her as well and call your vet.

 

[Ariahna]

Saying a prayer for the both of you.

 

[Billie Faye]

Sounds like she had a seizure...keep her calm/ agree with Marie on what to give her IF you have it and CALL YOUR VET ASAP!

 

[Theresa]

Hugs and prayers

 

[WingedVictory]

Try and relax, keep your bird call and follow the advice Marie has posted. Next call your local avian vet.

I agree it sounds like a seizure. Do you have an avian vet or do you need help finding one?

I keep checking back for an update. My guess is that they are off to the vets. Many prayers for little Cash's complete recovery.

I just got back from our local avian vet-- Cash had a seizure while there. The vet gave her a steroid and is sending us to another specialist in the area, since she's brand-new and was afraid to go any further.

Her poops are bad. She had one on the scale while being weighed. Her weight is good, though.

 

[suncoast]

Oh Dear,

When are you going to see the other vet? What do her poo's look like?

Ginger

 

[Karighan]

Very yellow, and mostly liquid. It's the first one I saw that was bad; her poop this morning was fine when I took her out.

We're going to the specialist in half an hour. The vet is on lunch now, but is expecting us at two.
