i don't think he's taking the anti-biotics too well, he's not his usual self when he's in his cage, he just sleeps all day he's also started sneezing alot, taking him back to the vets tomorrow

he's also started pulling on my clothes alot, not chewing just having a pull

and he's just done the worlds biggest wee all over my legs! :o lol x

Oh bless him, are you giving him any anti-biotics? Baytril is very hard on the guts and can out them off their food, have you been weighing him? Has he lost any weight? Is he eating ok?

Sorry for all of the questions, but it doesn't sound right.

the vets prescribed me some anti-biotics called 'enrofloxacin' which he has been on for a week now with 2 more to go. he was off his food for a day or 2 but i think that was more to do with changing the brand of food more than anything because he was eating his hay and veg fine and now he's eating his other food great, he is just sleeping through the day, come night he's out and pop corning round his cage like a nutter i don't know where the sneezing is coming from, he's always had the odd sneeze every day but monday night he was going at it like he had been in the pepper pot for about 10 mins and yestserday as well, fingers crossed he hasn't been too bad today xx

Awww, thats a lovely photo x) He's a handsome chap.

I think Enrofloxacin is the drug name for Baytril, it can knock them about a bit as it is quite harsh on their guts.
As Chloe has recommended above, it maybe worth getting some pro-biotics such as avi-pro plus [ame="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Avipro-Plus-Pack-Size-100g/dp/B004FGAV4A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1352932081&sr=8-1"]Avipro Plus (Pack Size: 100g Pot): Amazon.co.uk: Pet Supplies[/ame] it's worth asking your vet about when you see them tomorrow as this will help his tummy hile he's on the antibiotics.

Hope he feels better soon.
