My old fella has not been very well this week, generally off colour and off his food, he also bit my daughter when she was patting him,bit of a drama there too, it happened late at night just before bed, and when i was bathing the wound she fainted on me, gave me heck of a scare, anyhow to cut a long story short she is on a weeks antibiotics.,he can be a bit of a snarly puss and unpredictable at times, but i know this was not his usual, to bite so hard.
I am also planning on having his blood test done, in preparation for his big dental treatment, which i plan on having him done on the 14th july, hubby has a week off and so i will have no transport problems and it will be good having him here incase we need to get to the vet quickly.
Please wish us luck, i am a bit nervous wondering what is up with my old guy, and he does have a heart murmur so this could be part of his illness, i really don't know, maybe it is the teeth who knows, but when he has been eating he has been chosing hard biscuits rather than soft food, strange if it were his teeth, he has been sneezing a lot yesterday, but ok today and barfing like he is trying to get a hairball up, but have given him some medicine for that,it seems more like he is trying to get phlegm up to me, this time last year he seemed to come down with the same thing, vet said it was a virus probably or to do with his heart murmur, and yes he is vaccinated and up to date with cat flue jabs.
He usually drinks quite a lot but i have noticed he is not drinking as much, so i have been hydrating him with a syringe much to his dislike, tough , boy you are gonna drink and that is that, tough kitty love lol. Don't be panicking i am only filling a syringe with water, a small one, and putting it in his mouth, nothing else.
Here's hoping Ash is going to get better and be well for his dental and all goes well with that too. thanks for listening.
