Our beautiful non-human family member has not been well
and deteriorated in the last few days.
He has not eaten for two days/nights.
He has been on a special diet since 22/8
He is weak and not moving around other than sleeping in strange places around his home.
A missed Church this morning to take him to the Vets.
The results don't sound good.
- He has lost weight again - significantly.
- Temperature normal.
- The Vet felt his tummy and he was passive she said and could not find any lumps in there.
- The concern if there is smaller lumps.
- Fears that there is something really bad in there.
- Had an injection to help him feel better.
- Taking him in for the day tomorrow 8.40am
- He is classed as geriatric - 13 years old.
- To have an Ultrasound to find out what they see.
- Water permitted anytime till admission - No food after 6pm today as he needs an anaesthetic to calm him.
- Have signed if he has to have a General anaesthetic if he needs knocking out.
- Picking him up later in the day - I fear he is on his last legs - and how do we explain this to two and a half year old Conniepops?.
- Ziggy was the first word she ever said - she adores him. AND she is visiting next week end!!
