My special boy has been losing weight, and has now lost nearly 1kg. I took him to the vets almost 2 months ago when we first noticed the prolonged weight loss and we started preventative treatment - first feeding him seperately to the others to make sure he was getting his share, then treatment for Coxxi, then worming. Now he's been in for Xrays and bloods this week. Xrays came back clear and am waiting for bloods. All the time still losing weight despite feeding him junior food (as much as he will eat in a single sitting 1x day, plus his normal pellets too)
As well as the weight loss, he seems to be permanently stained underneath his belly, almost like he is weeing on himself. It's always dry and not matted though, vet is considering what could be causing it.
Then tonight I've gone out and his eye is quite gunky and half shut - so vets tomorrow for that. Twice in one week
Feel like something is compromising his immune system and the stress of the vets has caused a bit of a URI, hence the gunky eye. Just hope we get to the cause of it soon.....
