My rat is bleeding from the eyes nose wobbles when she walks and hasnt been eating.wots the matter wid her ?

It's not blood, it is porphyrin, a natural reddish liquid rats produce to rub behind their ears so in the wild other rats could sense them in the dark. Excessive amounts of porphyrin could be a sign of a problem, and not eating and falling over is definitely cause for major concern. But think positive, take her to the vet (preferably speciallized in rodents/pocket pets) and do everything you can for her. How old is she? A rat a few months old is in its prime and most likely to pull through. Treat her like a queen, even after she pulls through this!
