I've had Millie and Maddie for over a year now and for 12 months of that they had no problems apart from a broken nail. Then at the end of January I got up one morning and Maddie didn't come out for her pellets and refused to eat. Off to the vets we went, she had a slow moving gut, was given an injection and we syringe fed her some stuff that evening and by 10pm she was doing flops. The next morning she snatched her pellets off me as normal and she's been fine since then.
Until this morning. She did eat her pellets but then when I put them away to go to work she let Millie eat her broccoli which is unheard off. I gave her a fenugreek crunchie which she did eat but very slowly and then gave them a little bit of readigrass to see what she did and she ignored it, also unheard of. I've come home on my lunch break and she's not hiding which is good but she doesn't seem like her normal self still.
We're going to the vets this evening. Both of them need their claws cut anyway so I'll get the vet to check her out.
How can it be that she had no issue for a year and then possibly twice in 6 weeks when there's been no change to food, rountine or anything?
