Please Help!!! Joon has always been super active and hyper. She was playing and hopping around as usual when she threw up and laid down. She doesnt want to move anymore and just keeps laying down. She doesn’t want anyone else to hold her and keeps crawling back to me. In her throw up was clear liquid, Henry’s healthy block, and a bit of mandarin she had. She keeps shivering every 5-7 seconds. She weighs 528 grams of that helps at all. I’m so worried. Please someone help. She’s my little angel and I can’t bear the thought of losing her.
Update: She won’t stop pooping. They are light colored and very large and soft. She keeps crawling and releasing poop. I’m very worried

Update: almost an hour later. Joon won’t stop throwing up clear liquid with some pieces of green in it. She will drink water and is trying to move around. In need of urgent help on what to do. Will run to the store for some pedialyte.

I'm so sorry to see this.
How old? Diet? Can you give most specifics

Joon is 2 years old. She eats 2 Henry blocks, and a salad of romaine lettuce, sugar snap peas, red cabbage, 2-3 pieces of avocado, a small broccoli, some iceberg lettuce, a small slice of cucumber. She is free roam and only goes in her cage to sleep. She has bowls of water around the house available. Right now she is drinking a lot of water. She will vomit and then drink water. Joon is an eastern grey squirrel.

Her diet looks good to me.
I'm not sure about her breathing.
I'm hopeful others will chime in soon.

Until better advice keep her warm and hydrated, even a little sugar water

Hopefully something improves over night :(. I’ve given her pedialyte and let her cuddle me.

Sounds like she may have gotten into something toxic.
What could the green be? Could she have chewed on a house plant?
Keep pushing fluids to help flush her system.

Following the above instructions, you can try adding, 'activated charcoal' powder to the water to make it into a solution, and give it slowly by oral syringe, placing just the bare tip of the syringe at a 45 degree angle just behind the incisors just inside her lip. This can help absorb potential toxins and carry them out of her system.
Just be very careful to not shoot the mixture down the throat, pushing just a little at a time allowing her to swallow it down before repeating the same several times.

Thank you. I’ll be heading out early to get charcoal. I’m not sure what she could have gotten into. All our plants are nontoxic to her. The green pieces were sort of puffed up pieces of something. I’ll keep pushing fluids and keeping her warm.
