I'd Noticed Hamish's gland's looked extended about 4 months ago, I did a search on the net, and that's
How I found out about these Glands and their problem's ( great place the www ;) ) But you should have
seen the amount of stuff that came out  :wow: :sick: Hamish's were easier to see, being short haired, but with
Misty having His Fluffy Bottom :see:  :evillaugh: but I rubbed his back to make his tale stand on end, and I
could see one side was extended too, that's why I got the vet to check him today  ;)
not nearly the same amount as Hamish but it was clogged anyway and both times there was no smell ???

gee, what a topic to be talking about  :sick: :evillaugh:

anyway Misty had 6 hrs sleep and is now eating and is back to normal, He Has Forgiven Me  :Luv:

He's not doing it now, That is Good :Luv:  :tongue 2:
I know what you mean by extra vigilant, I'm doing the same with Misty justnow, Just got back
from the vet's ( on the journey He was firing at both ends :( ) got more bloods tooken and
He was very Good :Luv: :Luv: Must be 8 or 9 years since he was last in the car, and usually when
we got Home He'd make a Bee line for His Food dish, But justnow He is sitting in front of the
Heater, Hasent touched His Fresh Food and not interested in His Felix Chicken Lickin's ?? :(
He Loves them ??? He also got His anal Glands Cleared manually and He didn't like that  >:(

Just hope he eat's soon :(

He seems to have stopped now. I guess I am being extra vigilant with him having CRF and wondered if it was a symptom of dehydration.

I shouldn't worry just yet if he's ok in all other respects. Humphrey went through a phase of having his tongue out...even the vet nurse commented on it when he had to stay in for a couple of hours some time ago - she said every time she looked in on him he was sitting bolt upright staring at her with his tongue out  :evillaugh:. He did it for a few weeks then stopped - nothing wrong with him, he just chose to stick his tongue out  :P.

Clapton's tongue is hanging right out - is this anyrthing to worry about? - He has no teeth but it doesn't usually hang out like this  :scared:
