Now you know they are doing it to worry you don't you....I can just imagine Eva on a human forum saying "now you know the female was drinking alchol again..worrying"

He will be fine.....you have over active worrying glands woman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is he drinking Elaine?

Hope he has managed something. Obviously not happy is he? Did you manage to get him to eat the sardine?

Hope he feels better soon. Keep us posted.

He ate a little sardine and G managed to get him to eat a little cold meat. We have a water fountain which is being topped up no less than before, I also add a little water to the wet food. I havent witnessed him drinking but I assume he is.
I do have an over active worry gene, Kazz is right about that, but I know when things are just not quite right.
He's not been sick and still loves his cuddles, his eyes are bright but he's just not right.

Sounds like he does have a low tolerance to the gingivitis...its a devil toothache. I hope he's better soon Elaine...is he drinking....? I always add water to the food doing it to the boys now.

When is he due back at the vets...maybe he does need a bit of a dental.

I'd give it 48hours or so then if you still feel the same you could even call the vet.

I know that my vet knows if I phone, I'm not being a pain, I'm genuinely worried. Fngrs x'd.

The vet didnt seem to think so but said that if he was no better by Friday to take him back in. He said they may run blood tests to check liver and kidney function and clean up his teeth at the same time just incase.
How long would it have taken for the injections he got to take effect? Would it have been imediate or would the penecillin maybe take a little longer?

calismum · 20-11-2008, 12:05 AM

I think penecillin takes 3-4 hours (based on sheep!!!!!!!!!!)

Bernie has eaten a little tuna and a small amount of buscuits this morning, there was a wee poo in the litter box this morning too.
Am hoping he's on the up but may give Andrew a call later and see what he thinks.

Good boy Bernie...lets hope it's the start for recovery for him. BIG HUGS x
