Adult male Laying on his side.

critters4all Nov 10, 2008 12:11 AM

Hi,

I have an adult male about 6 years old. As of lately he has been laying on his side but only on his back end. when he lays like this there is no wheezing but when he is on his stomach he starts to sometimes wheeze. Any suggestions? Any ideas?

Sounds like you need to get him to vet, if you haven't already. There may be something a little more severe than a respiratory infection going on. Hopefully it isn't something to bad. Let us know what you come up with.

I know you posted this a while ago, but in case you're still looking at this thread, check out the "positioning" thread I posted several months back (it's still up on this same page). I think we're describing similar things.
