So tonight a few hours after feeding my squirrel Gambit, I noticed him making a low clicking noise. I'm not sure how aspiration breathing would sound but it worries me. He doesn't seem to want to eat anymore which is weird for him, though he has already eaten four times today. Also, while I was watching him sleep he made a squeaking noise and woke himself up, what could this mean? He's also been sneezing a little bit.

I'm going to take him to the vet in the morning but I thought I'd ask you guys' opinion.

It could be just rememeber to keep him warm...very important...Are you sure that a vet will see him without taking him away. Don't forget we have a member there that may also be able to help you...
What size syringe do you use? Did you see formula coming out? :grouphug

I've been making sure he's warm he has a little sock filled with rice that I warm up every few hours for him so he's snug and warm. Mrs. Byrd is going to be going with me to the vet to make sure they don't take him from me. I use 3cc syringes.. I know I need size 1cc but I haven't been able to get one yet. No, no formula came out.

I'm PM'ing it now. I can treat pnemonia, however, cannot see the baby through to the end of treatment due to my travel schedule.
