Back from the vets and I can honestly say I wont be eatring cottage cheese for a long time because that is just what the exploding abcess reminded me of  :sick:
I think the vets felt a bit bad for not diagnosing the abcess on Sat but TBH it only really came up yesterday, we have got more Metacam, synolux and hibiscrub to keep the area clean - I have got to clean it and give it a squeeze twice a day for a couple of days  :sick:  :sick: and they only charged for the meds today and not the consultation - I am claiming off the insurance though becasue the Xray was well expensive
Charlie is fast asleep now so hopefully on the mend now. Quck cup of tea for me and off to work
Thanks for all the vibes xxx

My poor Charlie is even worse this evening and he has got a huge abcess (sp) come up his shoulder, so it looks like that could be the cause of all his pain all along - back to the vets at 10am tomorrow.  He is hobbling even worse and feeling so sorry for himself.

So pleased he hasn't broken anything, but bad enough!  :(  Hope he soon feels better and stops making your 'ears bleed'    :rofl:   (Sue Cav's been through this with her Paolo following an RTA and said he was making her 'ears bleed'-love that description!)

Charlie says big fankoo for get well wishes.

He has sat at the back door and howled like a bloody wolf for the past 20 minutes to go out- I need some ear plugs!!

Helen, the vet thinks he got his leg stuck somewhere and pulled and/or twisted to get free ? no scuffed claws so that ruled out RTA

Good news that nothing is broken, although having torn ligaments in the past I know how painful that is - big hugs to Charlie bear  :hug:

Did the vet say how he thought Charlie might have done it?

Thanks all - luckily no broken bones, the vet thinks it is muscle and ligament damage so very painful, the vet said he was a total star and didnt even need sedating for the Xrays - he had a metacam jab and Ive got metacam liquid to give him from tomorrow morning - he has got to stay in for a couple of days and is definately not amused, even though he can only manage to hobble he is screaming to go out - dont think so Charlie Bear.
Absolutley exhausted so off for a little nap. x

Fingers crossed for Charlie. Let's hope a dose of Metacam and a rest will do the trick  :hug:

Charlie has been in the wars yet again and has come home lame on his front leg, not putting any weight on it all and yowling like a banshee if I try and touch it.
I took him to the vets first thing and they have kept him in to do Xrays - I am waiting for a call to find out what he has done.

Fingers, toes and everything else crossed that he hasnt broken the leg.
