It's not looking great for my budgie
. We took him to the vets and they said he seemed fine and he was the happiest and most content budgie he had ever seen. Probably because as soon as we opened the cage he flew around the room and landed on the vets head lol. I told him about his tail bobbing which i read is a sign of breathing problems and that it was squeaking all the time, even all through the night. Yet he didn't seem bothered, so we went away feeling relieved. Then the next day he seemed to get worse and the day after he was hardly moving and closing his eyes all the time
. So now we have some antibiotics and anti inflammatory medicine to administer by syringe, which I am dreading doing. Just hope he gets better as we have only had him nearly 2 years.
If he doesn't make it I don't think I'll get another budgie as I can't go through this again. Its breaking my heart seeing him with laboured breathing, instead of being his happy, chirping self. The last pet we had was a cat and she lived for 18 years with no medical issues at all.
