... I think it may well be diabetes, my russian dwarf did the same after only a couple of months of having her, she died before i could test her. Very upset...
First and most important advice, no sugary treats. read food labels for anything ending in -ose, or for molasses. No fruit, corn, peas or carrots either. Think...
