My gorgeous girl, please make it

Yesssssssss!

And that diagnosis fits the symptoms perfectly. Swollen kidneys would cut off some of the nerve impulses to the feet, interfering with the ability of the feet to properly grasp... thus the weakened grip.

I'm so happy for you and Tequila both!

Super great news!

I am sorry this is late! I'm so glad you got a diagnosis, and your precious baby is being treated now. That is such great news. I wish all the best for recovery here on out.

Thankyou !

I've just gotta scrub out her cage. It is newish, but it's powder coated. So i'm not sure if that was the cause.

If you dont mind my asking, what brand was the cage and where did you get it?

I seriously could cry with joy at the moment. She will be fine. She's had metal toxicity and they will keep her there for the next couple of days until she's 100%. Her kidneys are just still a little swollen. She can pass poo fine so her stomach doesn't need to be operated on. They also kept the bill very low. I am so so so happy at the moment. I'm a little teary!!!

Please do cry with joy, as it is cathartic and far better than the alternative!!

I am so happy Tequila has a good diagnosis and will be fine. Metal toxicity can be insidious and lurk within the most innocuous of items. Hopefully it is not the cage, as that is an expensive proposition to replace. Many toys have suspect metals, such as bells (I always remove the ringer as it is a favorite to remove and possibly ingest fragments) clasps, and even structures that hold beads, blocks, etc. Lead-testing kits are available that allow you to swab metal and observe a color change to indicate positively.

Good luck in your quest to rid Tequila of future toxic encounters!

I'm hoping the very best outcome for your treasured Tequila. Veterinary care is as much an art as science. Having a trusted and competent doctor is invaluable.

Many of us have been in your position and well know the angst you are experiencing. Please continue to keep us posted as you and Tequila are in our thoughts.

Thanks so much. It really is one of the worst feelings in the world. We are very bonded and I don't think I'd find another Eccy like her. All the vet nurses adore her and have told me they haven't met such a nice female Eccy before.

Wonderful news...so glad to hear Tequila will be okay...hope you find the cause of the toxicity soon

 

[Psittaciformes]

I am so happy for you, that's so great she'll be alright!
Is she good with the vet?

 

[Terry57]

I am so thrilled that Tequila is improving! Breathing a big sigh of relief for you both.

 

[GaleriaGila]

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Allee]

This is fabulous news! I'm so glad Tequila will be all right! I do hope you can find the source of the the toxic metal, as Scott mentioned, there are many possibilities. Please continue the updates.

I am so glad your vet came through for you and Tequila is recovering!

 

[jess.reco]

Thank you everyone for their support!!! I just can't wait to get her home. She's fine with the vet. She's a very lovely little girl, everybody there loves her too bits. I've gone and checked on her and she's getting better.

I just don't know what could have caused this except maybe the cage. She doesn't have many toys. She shreds more than anything so I give her branches.

 

[GreatBlue320]

Wonderful news! So happy for you and Tequila!

 

[jess.reco]

Rang the vet to check on her. Miss Tequila isn't eating and he thinks it's because she misses me. Going to the vet after work to try and coax her to eat.

 

[chris-md]

Jess I'm jumping for joy elated for you! What a wonderfully happy ending!!!

 

[jess.reco]

Thanks Chris Just gotta get her home now! She's being naughty and not eating.

FLBoy... thank you for that thread on poisoned conures.... GAWD!
