Hi everyone I need emergency advice.
I have a veiled chameleon named Trevor, She is almost a year old. Today she was acting super strange and the veterinary hospital was closed where I live. When I looked into her cage she was hanging upside down from a branch and was about to fall off, like she couldn't hold herself up. I grabbed her and she curled up into a ball and shut her eyes. She became limp. I was freaking out because she wasn't opening her eyes. I went to the bathroom and turned the shower on to provide some extra humidity for her and she looked dead. She wasn't moving and her eyes weren't opening. I went into my room and gave her water, calcium, and some emergency liquid food I had gotten from the vet. She barely swallowed it. My family came in to say our goodbyes and suddenly she gripped onto my finger and opened her eyes. I've been giving her water and keeping her hydrated. After a few hours passed I thought she was fine (she was back in her cage) and when I looked at her again she was throwing up, became limp, and almost fell off her branch. Her eyes were shut for a few minutes but the re-opened. I'm sorry if this was hard to understand I am frantically typing. Has this happened to anyone else? Do you think she is dying? I can't afford to take her to the vet but I will try to save money. Thank you for your help
