Hi,
My lovely rescue bun Walter who I have had for three months got diagnosed today with a Trichobezoar after she sedated him to look at his teeth and they were normal and he had an AXR which showed he had a massively distended and blocked tummy. The biggest she has ever seen.
I feel terrible, he has lost a lot of weight but its only become apparent this weekend so I got him to the Vets asap. He is having to stay in overnight for subcut fluids and pain relief with his wifey and then have the operation tomorrow.
Just worried because he is so thin already and been through so much. He was found abandoned in a box, then had to live at a rescue where no one wanted him because he is so shy, and then had stasis and now this!
So please good vibes for Walter, I'm just desperate for him to be happy
Walter is now home with Lola. The Vet said I could leave him there but I wanted him home to put him on a hot water bottle and so if he did die he was in a familiar place.
She said the bezoar was much larger than she had thought and has a very large incision on his tummy. He was lucky to get through the anaesthetic given his weight but still has lots of milestones to get over. He hasn't eaten yet which she said was fine because he has had Bupronorphine so is very drowsy, so I have to make sure he has eaten in the morning.
He looks sick, he looks even thinner And even Lola looks shaken up, she has been doing some messy poos but is at least eaten and pooing which is a good thing I guess!!
Please more vibes please. I am so scared I am going to loose him. He has had such a horrible life so far.
