Ozzy has gastritis now....! Update....

Pip

You and Ozzy are really going through it at the moment aren't you!

Hopefully once all the stress of the move is over things will start to improve.

We look forward to meeting you and OH again soon and your special little boy

Hey Pip
How's wee Ozzy this
morning?
We hope he's feeling a bit
better

How's the little fella doing?  And you too ?  I feel for you.....it has been a tough time.

You are all in our thoughts. Xx

Well, he was absolutely fine until half an hour ago, when he ran behind the sofa and threw up again!  Then came out to the kitchen wagging his tail as if nothing had happened!  I'm at my wits end now - he's been on fish and rice since yesterday and his poos had solidified up nicely - we'll see what they are like in the morning!

Poor love, have you thought of putting him away somewhere quiet after he's eaten, don't know if you crate him, but maybe try to keep him calm after eating - just a thought!

[Cassie01]

Aw, I'm sorry to read this - poor him & poor you, too (((hugs)))

Have you moved as yet or is that all still on the go?

You could, on the off chance it may help calm his tummy, reduce the food to just boiled rice with a little scrambled egg and perhaps a little probiotic yoghurt if you have any in. Possibly try lots of little meals like when he was incy again  although it may feel like a backward step sometimes it can be a case of two forward, one back 

Everything crossed for you with Ozzy's iffy tummy and your pending move - hoping for calmer waters ahead.

Oh you poor things! Not what you need right now. Hopefully he'll settle in the next day or too on a bland diet.

With the vomiting, do you see him do it? Does he retch? I remember reading up about the baggy oesophagus (which Jemimabear's Marley has) and if they don't retch when they're sick that could be a sign of it (they regurgitate rather than vomit). Just a thought - fingers crossed it isn't anything serious though.

[piph]

It's nearly always just bile, and never just after he's eaten, usually not long before his next meal is due.  We've come to the conclusion that it often happens when he's got over excited about something - either we've had a visitor, or we've been visiting. Just seems to be random.

[Lily Freya]

Aw....really hope it all settles down eventually for Ozzy and for you too.

Sending big hugs your way from us all. X
