Hi everyone. Jade is doing well ( that’s the good news) but my boy , Dexter, is now not. He gets constipated but that usually is resolved with some pumpkin or Petramalt.
I took him to the vet at the end of October for that and he seemed to be drinking a lot and asking for food really often. The vet didn’t really seem concerned, he’s 14 and she said he seems in pretty good shape for his age. I was very relieved. In the last week or so I’ve noticed his third eyelid showing here and there. He also really hasn’t pooped much at all. Just got back from the Vet. X-rays, blood work, urine sample, and eye check. X Ray shows that he is very full of poo. They’re keeping him for an enema. But what’s worse is his severely enlarged left kidney. They will know what exactly is happening once his blood work comes back but this is surely kidney disease and I’m a wreck. Sick to my stomach. I know a lot of my FDMB family have fur babies with the same thing. Help?
Thank you...
