Question

My mouse is very weak. She has a lump on her neck and her eyes have lost color. Whats going on? Pet's info: Small Animal | Unknown - Small Animal | Female | unspayed | 0.2 lbs

A lump on the neck could be an enlarged lymph node, abscess or gland (thyroid). If your pet is weak, a veterinary visit ASAP is recommended. Small animals typically do not have much stored energy reserves, and by the time they appear sick, they have been ill for a period of time. Some of these conditions might respond well to treatments (infection) versus neoplasia, which can be treated but with difficulty.
