I took a list and paper and a pencil with me last Thursday so I didn't forget!!!!
I will be back there (hopefully tomorrow or Wednesday) and have already written my next list!!!!!

It can take time for poos to appear after a severe bout of GI stasis.
Hopefully they will do so overnight.

Are the Vets allowing her to hop about out of her cage ? A bit of exercise would help move things through too.

yeah, well i shes been in since midnight so technically that was today so she hasn't been in a day yet so im hoping she will have by tomorow morning, i want to bring her and vali home:/ - i don't think they allow them out, because of the other animals but shes in a big dog kennel to herself and so it val next to her so they know who's poo is who. the got out today with me for about 30mins which was good:)
 
This might sound weird, but another thing that could help is for the Vet to put a few of Vali's poos into Lilly's litter tray. Lilly may need to feel that it is OK to poo in a strange kennel. If the Vet counts how many of Vali's poos she puts in the litter tray he/she will know if Lilly has added to them.

Doesn't sound strange to me but then I've spent nearly 4 weeks counting poos..............I even got a tape measure out today, god help me..........
 
good idea, when she or when i ring tomorow morning if theres been no poo's then ill suggest that, im hoping she will have passed atleast something so i can bring her home i miss her and valentino :( - and it's costing me a bom for every extra night shes there:/
 
Sending poor Lilly lots of healthy pooping vibes;) I hope you have them home with you soon. I know just how you're feeling as my little man had to be rushed in for an op today:cry: here's hoping for full recoveries all round! Fingers & toes crossed for you.xx
