OK, latest. She is laying down in the crate in the room. I held her for a while - she is not very warm. Under her wings are more tepid than hot. I presume this is because she has had nothing to keep up her heat at all. The room is about 19'C (66'F) but could fall during the night to about 10'C (50'F).
Should I try to get some heat on in there or am I making matters worse? She has not had any food whatsoever, and as she hasn't had much getting through her, I think she is on the point of starvation possibly.
I can put the heating on in there and het it to about 21'c (70'C)
I really want her to get through tonight and hopefully then the vet can sort her tomorrow morning.
She stopped drinking as I said, so we did not force hydrate her.
It all feels a little scary at the moment. She is super wobbly when walking. She sat quite calmly with me whilst I held her to keep her warm for about 30 mins. Now she is sat in the crate, on a towel with other towels over the crate to keep any cold out or warm escaping. It will allow airflow because there are gaps.
