Hes off hisfood again, but I think its teeth this time as hes not showing any signs of GI and he has wanted toeat a little,mainly just SS recovery. My poor boy, he looksreally really rough this morning. I should have taken him last night, but I just gave him a little metacam and infacol hopingis was tum troubles. We will be going as soon as the vet opens though.

I don't know what happens with teeth problems, should I pack a little bag of dinner for when he wakes up (if they need burring), Abbey will be staying with him, so I probably should take a bit of hay.

Unfortunately teeth problems and tummy problems are usually linked.

I would take some hay and veg in with them incase he needs admission. Dont forget to tell the Vet about the Metacam he had last night as this will influence what meds he is given this morning

Good luck xx
 
Thanks ladies.

Don't worry I always remember to let the vet know what I give them at home, it'll be a new vet though that we have never been to, so they might not like the at home medical care,never mind, I'mnot leaving him in pain when I don't have too.

ETA; hes just had a little drink of warm water and a bit of alfalfa hay.

Poor little man is in the vets at the moment, it was probably histeeth that stopped him eating so he is having a burr later this morning. The vet is a little worried about his age and the GA, but he has to have the opp.

Abbey has gone with him, and has a packed lunch. I really hope it all goes well :(
 
The vet phoned and said he'd had an infected molar, so they removed it and he was recoving well. Then rang again half hr later and said he'd had a heart attack and there was nothing they could do.

Abbey is looking for him.
 
I'm heartbroken, he really was my baby boy. I don't know what to do, Abbey is so stressed - she is eating still, but she ran in the shed, and was looking allover for him, and shes sat in the top of the hutch, poor girl she looks so lost.
 
Oh god Im so so sorry for your loss :cry:

Give Abbey loads of cuddles and attention, you'll really need eachother over the next few weeks.

Thinking of you both xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
My heart goes out to you - its truly gut wrenching and I am so very very sorry.

All I can say is time will heal slowly - and I am beginning to be able to think of Lucy and smile now instead of lie for hours crying.

All my love to you x x
