She's had 3 lump removals in about the last month and a bit, 2 of these in the last week. She had to be re stitched twice more on one of them as she keeps pulling the stitches out.
The vet even put in staples but she'd had them out by the time we went to pick her up

She now has a little hand made 'cone' round her head to stop her pulling them out as the vet said theres no more skin left to stitch together so if she has these ones out they can't redo them.
The poor little girl looks so depressed. She's drinking, but shes gone off her food which is worrying.
We've obviously got to keep the cone on as it seems to be working this time and shes not pulling at the stitches, but she's not doing much else either, is there any way we can get her to eat or will it just take time? We're trying all sorts of yummy soft things but she just wont take a bite

Its heartbreaking to see her so far from her usual chirpy self.

She's also broken the record of most expensive rat with all the vet bills coming in at almost £350 so far!
