Gone from fat and healthy to very boney in under a week!
Only noticed a couple of days ago when we gave her a stroke and we could feel her spine. (She is the most nervous of being touched so we don't tend to handle her much) She was fine a few days before.
She is eating fine. Tucking into her dry food, and also eating grass in the garden all day.
Took her to the vets this morning and he is very concerned about the amount of weight she has lost. He suspects liver failure, and is concerned that it may be a liver tumour
She has had a blood sample taken and we should know the results within the next day or so. The vet has given her an injection of steroids, and I am going to give her unlimited pellets.
Has anyone else experienced this? Could there be any other reason other than liver failure?
