Hugs for you and Albert....

Sit down today and organize his meds. Even if it's just on a paper chart for now.... having them organized will help with the overwhelming feelings.

I'm writing all his meds down in a wee book I bought and ticking them as I go along tori thanks for the tip I'm gonna find a white board too xx

Hi auntie robin Albert said thanks for the kisses

... Did u see his shaved bits

waaaa xx[/QUOTE]

Yes, I saw his shaved bits but the great thing about hair is it grows back! My Phoebe Trixibell had a terrible hotspot on her tail and lost about 95% of her tail hair. Is growing back really fast. Albert's will too!

Can't wait till it does lol plenty of sweaters I thinks !! I'm on way to the health food shop to see if I can get pumpkin canned

Lyndsy, did you tell the vet about the leaking poop that Albert has been experiencing all last night and today. I am sure its the meds but maybe they can give you something else to stop the diarrhea. Just a suggestion. I know what your going through. Hugs!!

Glad he liked warm water I give a bit to daisy when tummy is upset now on the cold days she gets it every morning!! Did you take him to the vets hope he feels better soon daisy gives him some sleepy snuggles and says that your little patches will grow back very quickly and not to worry!!

Lyndsy, just thought of something. Do you have a T K Max in Scotland? When I was in the UK I ventured into one (same as T J Max in US) and in the food aisle--low and behold was a can of pumpkin (Libby's from the US)! You might try there too!!!!! If not do you know anyone w/access to a US military base who could help you?
I am hesitant to blame the medication completely as he had those meds in the hospital & his poo was normal when he saw you & pooped, wasn't it?
Are you giving him any cheese? That might be the culprit! Cheese does that to my two---just trying to think w/you! Keep us posted.

**Lynzodolly** · 12-10-2012, 11:51 AM

Hi sandi

no cheese just been plain chicken and rice

I went out looking for the stuff in tk max no good

came back after half an hour the house was covered in the wet runny poop

iv been scrubbing called the vet she said give it 24 hours to come out of his system

what else can I do ? Xx

**Malt Shoppe** · 12-10-2012, 11:52 AM

Lyndsy, can you get Albert some Pedialyte at the store - used for babies to regulate their electrolytes?

I don't want to worry you more, but please do not hesitate to return him to your local vet. He is in too weak a condition to tolerate that much diarrhea.

I lost my little Gimme in June after her having extreme diarrhea and vomiting - she expired the same day; even emergency vets couldn't save her. I feel very strongly, Albert needs professional help thru this. Vets here have a product called Endosorb Suspension to curb diarrhea and vomiting - I keep it on hand.

Hi Claire I'm so sorry to head about the loss of your little one

his diahorrea he just did one lot just then is thickening up

not sure if its a good sign or not Hun

... If he carets in il just run him right over as he's drinking loads and loads too .. Sometimes feel the vets here are a little pist at seeing him so much

xx

Who cares on how the vets view you!!! you are paying them for a service and if that is how they feel then mabey should change professions. I would go to the vets and ask for something for Albert to take for him to keep up his electrolytes. Do any of the markets carry canned pumpkin ? the filling stuff to make the pumpkin pie with?
