hello all! hope all is well.
one of my daughters, Mango, acts completely fine..she eats, drinks, takes baths, and preens a LOT with her siblings. however, i notice that sometimes, when just standing there and breathing, her tail slightly bobs. it would go down a little bit, then shoot back up to normal. i also recently noticed that she breathes slightly slower than her siblings.
is this just her unique breathing pattern, or a sign of a respiratory issue?
note- her siblings do not have these symptoms.
 
Of course! Always better to be safe than sorry. I’ve been paranoid about the same thing with my GCC before.
