well atleast we know fiz is feeling better :oops: Must laugh at the whole poop in car though! I'm sort of like the Aunt that doesnt get angry at anything the kids do, well it goes for animals too. LOL We weren't angry, but the poor bugger did get pretty stinky. And then we had another little while ...

Wooo hoooo Fizgig way to get that worked out. Oh just to let you know that fizgig was my favorite in the Dark Crystal! LOL hope they do an xray to make sure there is nothing lodged in there. Fizgig is fine, and the vet did a full exam. Nothing seems to stuck in him anymore and just seems to be a ca...

Please let us know how he is doing. Fingers crossed that he'll be okay and himself again real soon! I suspect its just the constapation at this point. Until that hit he was acting completely normal. Either way we'll know in about 18 hours, until the he's still alert and responsive. He'll purr if I ...

If you really do believe he's eaten paper, then he will need to see your vet very soon. Your vet will probably administer enemas to relieve his problem, possibly an x-ray to see how much is lodged in his system. Please do bring him in soon as this cannot be comfortable for him, and if he isn't eati...

It does seem to be a case of constipation. I had a very elderly kitty with a similar problem. She just could't give it that final shove and it would just stay there. After a couple rounds of treatments at the vets, the vet suggested putting 1/2 tsp unflavored Metamucil in a wet food only diet. It w...

I have a two year old long haired (presumably Maine Coon). Early today Fizgig stopped eating, I hadn't noticed until he didn't come when I offered him a treat for his nail clipping. He was hiding under my bed and wouldn't take a treat offered to him from my hand. So I managed to get him out with a b...

I'm not giving the chins any more attention than I was before. I making it more of a point that if he pokes at them through the cage I make sure that he leaves them alone. And since I just called the vet, they are of course closed today and tomorrow for the Victoria day long weekend in Canada. So th...

Hi all, Fizgig seems to have his diaheria problem again. Its exactly like last time. There have been no food changes, or anything else. I just suddenly started last night. Part of his stool was normal, followed by a mass of the soft clay like stool, but more like right before it went back to normal ...

Mompaws, Scooter is a chinchilla :wink: Love the pics, Beleriphon, how is Fizgig doing? Are you getting a recheck on him tomorrow? Not right now, probably going to be Saturday since they're all booked full tomorrow, and have a few emerg cases that came in today. So they called and asked if I could ...

Just thought I'd chime in on the black light and eye protection. Black-light is another term for ultra-violet (UV) light. Exposure to UV rays (black light, sunlight, etc.) increases your risk of developing catarracts, and make cause retinal damage as well. Never point the light toward your face or ...
