Default just wanna cry :*(

domino prolapsed 4 times last night n again 3 times tonight! ive spent most of tonight with my finger up his bum and im scared of goin to sleep in case it happens overnight!! im typin with one hand cos i hve him sat on my finger!!!! hes been brilliant the past couple of weeks n today he hasnt eaten much or pood much
yesterday he was throwin up little bits but he hasnt been sick today. Nerys thinks it might be worms so hes bein wormed, tomorrow will be his 3rd dose of wormer, he hasnt passed any yet

i have serious PMT and this isn helpin, i feel like im in total despair and really feel for my baby though it seems to be more distressin for me than him!!

gunna see if i can get him into the vet first thing tomorrow

im also runnin out of sugar!!!!!!

<<cries>>

fingers crossed for you that it isnt anything more sinister - I know I havent posted as I dont know nowt about skunks but have been following the threads about him - hopefully the wormer will do the trick and the vet can reassure you more

I am so sorry. I have never had it happen with a skunk, heck I'd have to have the skunk first but I have had it happen in hoggies. I hope all goes well in the vets and that both you guys are ok. Hugs. fingers crossed.
