Hugo's There
Wise Old Thumper
Sprout was lucky enough to get an appointment with our exotics vet this morning ( she only works 2 days a week now). Sadly its not the best news, but also it was what we were expecting.
He has bad spurs on his upper molars, which have gone in to his cheeks - this is why we could see he was having problems swallowing The vet agrees that his roots look bad and Sprout will need to remain on metacam for the foreseeable future, if not for life. So tomorrow he is going in for a dental, x-rays and blood tests to make sure being under weight for so long has not caused an damage to his major organs. Once we have the results of the x-rays we will know if his horrible incisors can be removed of if the roots are just too tangled and over grown.
Sprout has never had a Ga before so he needs all the vibes and good wishes possible to get through tomorrow
We have also estimated that if the incisor removal goes ahead his treatment is going to cost around £500
