Atticus, stasis :(

Gosh I'm sorry I had no idea Atticus had megacolon. I knew he had ongoing gut problems though.

Sending your beautiful boy billions of vibes. Xxx
 
Sending more vibes along Graciee, hope Atticus continues to do well. Please look after yourself too, hope you and Michael feel better soon xxx

Yea he does unfortunately, its a really sucky thing to have tbh. He normally copes well its just more cleaning for us, but then this happens every so often and it's never good :(

Thanks everyone for the support :) xxx

Thanks :)


He's still only nibbling bits, there is some steady output though, just not a lot. He seems much more comfortable which is good too.

He isn't drinking anything though which is worrying me, obviously he's getting 15ml of fluids every 2 hours so maybe he's just not thirsty? Idk

Thanks for thinking of him :)

I've got some more Atticus "normal" looking poop presents this morning, so that's a huge positive :D I just wish he'd start eating more hay, he's nibbling still, and he's now super enthusiastic about grass, ribwort, herbs, kale, watercress, basically anything else I find in the garden.. Which he wouldn't normally get, but I wanted to avoid cc if possible coz he hates that.. So I'm glad he's into all those things but the hay consumption really needs to increase, I'm hoping it will as he feels more normal etc. He's much more springy too so I think he's feeling better :)
