since bertie saw claire last thursday....he has been a bit noisy in his breathing..not chest or nose..like his throat. it didnt affect him but it only happened once id got home from the vets and put it down to the nurse holding him up under his armpits fopr a long time for claire to re check his sores under his toes.
bertie was to see claire this thursday..but the breathing thing has gradually worsened but nothing different.
so when he had a kind if choking attack and a abscence session..i got worried sick.....
rushed him to vet and..hed stopped:shock::shock: no rasp
at all.
so i put him over my shoulder for claire to have easy access to the other toe...and he slowly began to rasp.
I told her it was much worse at home and he was breathing as fast at home as he was there!
She agreed it wasnt his chest or his nose..with his pasturella. but his upper airway.
she would have liked to give him a steroid but couldnt with his sores under his feet and the fact hed been on metacam too. she said to use the metacam as the treatement for it..plus yet more baytril in case it was an infection..metacam for inflammation...and more piriton in case it was an allergic reaction.
odd but the nurse whod held bertie up left him stinking of her perfume..its still there today still..wonder if thats what caused it?:shock:
never thought it about until i got home with the piriton....
his feet are still improving and his ears are still improving...and then...his tear duct on his right eye is blocked and the other eye is a bit mucky. she said he wasnt well enough to have his ducts flushed so its tiacil for him poor old soul.
hes sleeping and his breathing is awful sounding....
i havent let him have any syringe feed as mAYBE ITS THE CAUSE of the inflammation?
he is eating and hay..and claire said hes put on weight again:shock:
he cant be xrayed at the moment...he wouldnt make it..his breathing probs etc.
i know it sounds crazy..but it did occur with the nurse holding him...claire said its odd....but possible....but never considered the perfume issue.
i think she was more admin staff..she had a stripey:shock: t:shockp on..im not too sure.
lets have some more RU vibes for my big bertie..please.
had to smile..claire took him out of his carrier..she weighed him and she insisted on putting him back in his carrier....becasue she liked doing it she said....methinks bertie has another fan club member:lol:
