I'm sooo pleased to hear that Robbie is on the mend.  It must have been very worrying seeing him be sick.  My cat woke me up at 3.58am the other day being sick with a hairball.  It's not nice to see your pets going through it.  They look so helpless.

Glad that Robbie is getting better. :luv::luv::luv:

Well done Robbie :clapping::clapping:
Lots of love ... Lizzie

Hiya,

Robbie took a turn for the worst on Friday and again became very sick, very lethargic and so sorry for himself.  Kept walking out garden and hiding in a bush. Had a pure watery poo.

Back to starvation and getting the sachets down him by syringe.  Had a very worrying night I can tell you....slept downstairs with him again and fortunately he slept right through. Much perkier by the morning thank goodness. Gave him a spoonful of rice only every couple of hours which he managed to keep down. Very sleepy still but happier in himself.

By Saturday night he was much more himself and more playful for just a few mins then back to sleep he went.

Sunday - much much better - no sickness and again just a few spoonfuls of rice and chicken every few hours - so as not to overload the stomach all at once. No poos still at this point.

Today I gave him a generous helping of rice and chicken and also took him for a short walk. He is happy and 'hungry' but going to stick to 3 meals today and just chicken and rice again. He had a poo this morning which was pure yellow liquid. Yuk  ph34r

We have an appointment with the Nurse at 5pm tonight for a check up. He has lost a lot of weight so needs building back up.  He was due for worming and fleeing today but i cant imagine the nurse will recommend it.

So hoping my little man will be back to normal soon. Also worried he now may be suseptical to  a sensitive stomach from now on - is this the case or is that just scaremongering!!

Oh no poor Robbie..and he was doing so well too...

As on one of the other threads I would def recommend Purina Fortiflora (1 sachet a day for 5 days) it restores all the good bugs. At first I thought the vet was mad and had my doubts But it seems to work every time!! Maybe your vet can buy some in for you or maybe stocks it already??

Hope he feels better soon... :bigarmhug:
