Today, Petra had her teeth and nails trimmed. She was very good at the vet and at the shelter. She saw Dr. Dan at Avian & Exotic (who is awesome!). He said her back teeth were quite overgrown, causing her pain and reluctance to eat. With her teeth trimmed, the skin inside her cheeks should start to heal and she's getting meds for the pain. We should see improvement within 3 days. With proper diet, it shouldn't be a recurring thing, but she should see a vet in 3-6 months just to be sure.
Everyone remarked about how sweet (and so skinny!) she is. She'll make someone very happy.
