[QUOTE="TheFredricus, post: 180000, member: 33482"] Thank you for your advice and concern! Today I gave her water through a pippette twice, she took about 3 drops each time and her abdomen looks slightly more rounded now! However, I still havn't removed her 2 bad limbs but one of them is definetly starting to come off. If she doesn't pull it off herself during the next couple of days I will help her, but I'm waiting for her to recover from the stress and I'm afraid of her dehydrating if I remove both of her limbs at the same time. She's currently patched up with corn starch which seems to cover the wounds well. She's moving around a little but still acts very lethargic, I have no problems of shoveling her up in my hands, although I prefer to avoid to interfere with her as much as I can. If she still won't eat, I will help her with that as well. I'm just so worried about her, it feels like all her strenght is gone. Also - she hasn't been in a death curl, luckily. It's her abdomen I'm worried about. But like I wrote, it's fine at the moment. Fingers crossed she recovers. [/QUOTE]
