660.0. "Bacteria" by SALSA::DEFRANCO () Fri Feb 07 1992 17:03

    What can you share with me about "gram-negative bacteria"?  My poor
    Taco has this and he is not feeling well.  He went to the vets on
    Tuesday. He has been on Cefa drops and in his hopital cage which is 
    heated to a stable 85 degrees.
    
    Taco escaped a few weeks ago and spent an entire night outside in 30
    degree weather.  A few days after we caught him, we took him to get his
    wings clipped.  The vet feels that all this stress has caused him to be
    sick.  He also said not to worry that Taco will get better because he
    really isn't that sick and that todays medications will clear this up
    quickly.  I hope so.
    
    This has been and still is a terrible experience for all of us.  I was
    always on the fence when it came to clipping but this has helped me to
    make the final decision.  Taco will always be clipped so this can never
    happen again.  
    
    Again, back to gram-negative bacteria.  Any info would be appreciated.
    
    thanks,
