    Drake has trouble breathing after eating and drinking

    Sadly yesterday he passed away... I felt like he was getting better and one moment he was fine and the next he couldn't even keep his head up.

    So the test for parasites came back negative but we are still giving him the nebulizer and his medication that kills any bacterial infection. He still breaths funny but seems to be doing a little better.

    Drake has trouble breathing after eating and drinking

    I will try to give him food throughout the day. Usually he gets let out to eat 3 times a day for about 30 min each. Maybe if he always has access he wont eat as fast and wont have trouble breathing
