My 4 month old boy Peanut is showing some strange neurological behavior. He is unsteady and very slow. His head seems to be a bit more domed on the top. I thought maybe hydro but he has had no signs of it in the past. This change in his head shape is just suddenly noticeable. He also has a little porphyrin around his nose. and has lost a little bit of weight.

I can't get him into the vet till tomorrow. any thoughts?Huh

With just being "slow", I don't know that you can diagnose PT...his head shape, though...yikes.  Will your vet be able to do an x-ray?

I took Peanut to the vet this morning. While at the vets he started seizing . I don't know if it was the added stress that did it. But it was really horrible. He was doing it every few minutes. Nothing would stop them. So I did the only thing I could do at that point.  I ended his suffering.

I really hope things get better around here. The vet doesn't think that the death of my boys in connected. Just really bad luck and timing  :tear:  :angelrat:  :angelrat:  :angelrat:  :tear:
