If it was properly hydrated before you left then dehydration shouldnt be the cause. But when you mentioned heat pad, it became a possibility again. There may have been complications with the moulting process that caused internal damage etc. But this rarely happens. Side note, I would avoid using heat pads at all. They are an unecessary risk if you have central heating.</blockquote>
