Thank ypu Rosella you are very kind
Thanks Desley was hoping you would see this cos know you have used a lot. Yes he was weighed but I dont get bloods for them unless for a real reason cos the birmans get very stressed and thats not good for them. Richard is very good and knows Ducha so think he would have insisted if he thought it was going to be a problem. The leaflet says what you have about CFR so am watching him carefully as know Franta was not given metacam cos of only having one kidney. Is there anything else I should watch for as a sign for CRF? Thanks for your input and everyome else too
I cant open his mouth so that method is gone and think he does like the taste lol, tomorrow and gonna try mixing it with food on my finger so I know he eats it and not another cat
Havent tried smelling it but its definately like a syrup.
He has just come all the way down stairs got up on a stool and onto sofa, had lots of strokes while he was lying down, got fed up and got back down to floor level, used scratching post and gone back up stairs and got onto the bed.......................sigh
I am hoping that as long as another cat doesnt push him then going slowly in his own time he is OK.
Yesterday Franta rushed up the stairs and knocked him and I just got there in time to help him get back on track cos was right at top and nearly fell I think
Yes the leaflet says if they stop eating and drinking then to stop the metacam.
Have only realized today that this is maybe something the insurance will not pay out for if he hurts his knee any worse, which is very worrying but hope that he stays careful.......not in his purrrsonality I think.................that we can stop it in 5 days although the vet says if not to continue with it and bottle only has a 14 day life. Dont know how much 3ml is against number 2 on syringe though.
So am hoping little Ducha will get better. He is not purring like he used to when he steals my pillow but have had a few purrs today so hope thats good.
