Just lost a 4 mo old ball to this. Taking him to the vet for a definative diagnosis. Hoping my daughters doesn't come down with it. Found good info on Melissa Kaplan's site and a few others. Paralysis of the last six inches of his body, star gazing, incomplete shed. Frequent opening of his mouth, don't know if the last was related.
