A friend came by today to have some things printed out, and he had a car!! :) So... I thought, let's do it now! I called the vet, he was on his way out to sick visits, but said we could bring Fister over at 2PM, so we did. I didn't even have tiem to get nervous.
Fister was weighed and had bloodtests done, he's now down to 6.8 kg from 7.5 last time. The vet says it's only normal to lose muscle mass at his age, so I don't worry too much.
The numbers are as follows:
Urea 9,5 (normal = 5,7-12,9)
Alat 61 UL ( normal = 12-130)
Glucose 6,88 (normal = 3.94-8,83)
Last time (14.07.05) they were:
Urea 8,7 (normal = 5,7-12,9)
Alat 64 UL ( normal = 12-130)
Glucose 16,49 (normal = 3.94-8,83)
Fister did complain a little during the car ride, but he was brave boy at the vets. He let him look at this teeth, they were fine, and he had his paw shaved for the blood test - that didn't seem to bother him much either. :)
The vet also felt his tummy, and all seemed fine.
As soon as I opened the lid to the cage, he jumped out and ran under my bed, but when Martin left, he came out and was his usual self. We have cuddled and brushed and eaten some treats, and he's now laying next to my keyboard wanting more scritchies and treats. :D
