Yay

This morning, I picked up the first proper solid poo! It looks like things are improving. I hope it is not just a temporary thing whilst under the influence of all the drugs.

Troy is eating well, he now gets rice and egg in the morning and rice and prize choice chicken (with ground bone) in the evening. He eats all I give and is enjoying it.

He is booked in again on Friday for a check up and to weigh, together with Dylan who needs another thyroid test. I will then also want to talk about his heart arrhythmia again.

No better

I am giving Troy just rice and egg. Troy's diarrhea is no better! He is eating well (feeding him three times at the moment), but his rear end is dire! Just orange liquid - not good. I wonder whether potatoe would be better? I'll see what Karen thinks.

Vet

I took Troy to the vet this morning and saw Ian. Troy got lots of meds for tummy, Ian couldn't feel anything nasty in his belly though, so that's good. Ian isn't sure about the cause of it, so we will see how Troy gets on over a week (I continue feeding him rice and eggs) and then reassess the situation. Troy is now just 53kg... that's another 5 kg down from the last visit! Not good!

Ian also had a look at Troy's eye that is wet again on the side. He isn't sure what's causing this, but it is definitely not a hot spot, but the eye leaking. So we will just keep it dry and keep an eye on it.

Still fussy

When Troy didn't eat properly over the week-end either, I decided to give him fresh cooked chicken and sweet potatoe on Monday night and Tuesday morning and he loved it. The result was more mucousy poo and in the end the runs... great!

So I put him back on his own food last night and this morning, which he has eaten some (1 tray each meal... he should have at least 1.5)... I think I am going to book him into the vets for Friday morning though, I am just not happy with his progress.

Troy not eating properly again

Troy has started to be fussy again and is not eating too well. He has started to lose weight again and is now too skinny. He ate well last night though and ok this morning, so I'll see what he is doing over the week-end, if he doesn't improve then he is off to the vets again.
