It's always stressful when a vet recommends surgery. What is her over all health + activity like and what is the surgery supposed to do ? Can you post more pics of her ?

She looks so small --- do they know what caused the gas buildup?

Ha ha, what a cutie ! Is that what she looks like as an adult ? If she seems to be healthy you might opt for a second opinion. What did the vet say was so dangerous to her health , like why do they think she'll die ? Of course it would be frightening to hear that prognosis but you also want to be sure the surgery is needed.

They said it could have been some kind of food they weren’t sure and these pictures are a little older

Crickets superworms and the omnivore mix which shes been eating since she was a month old

So what is her diet?

She also eats some fresh stuff too but shes not as interested in it with calcium on everything

You only need to dust w/ calcium D3 the insects ---not the greens --- dust w/ calcium D3 5 x per week ONCE per feeding if shes eating insects 2 times per day ---- vit A w/ beta carotene 2 x per week ONCE per feeding- I would cut out the omnivore mix---- fresh is always best ---

Ignore the kale info it is outdated - it is a great staple feeder
