Good news for you and Tepe, glad he is feeling better - they are a pain in the neck when they are not well

they do not have access to grass as tepe refuses to go outside

Mine dont have either, but that dos'nt stop me from going into next doors garden (well leaning over the fence) and picking some!  :evillaugh: That's what I usually do if I suspect furballs are at large!  ;)

thanks guys, poss a fur ball . they do not have access to grass as tepe refuses to go outside he runs and hides whenever the door is opened and if you carry him to the door to let him out he scratches you and wriggles out of your arms and hisses until he down and able to run and hide.

no sick this morning and he seems a lot brighter but his nose is wetter than normal and he keeps licking it and his purr sounds slightly jittery (not sure how else to explain it) but he is definately chirpier

Could still be a furball even though they are short haired, not as common but possible....Do they have any access to grass? Maybe a good idea cos that can sometimes bring up or help the problem pass quicker!

Hope Tepe is feeling better soon!  :Luv: :hug:

I wouldnt starve him personally but give him cooked fish and chicken instead.

Is he longer haired  if so could be a furball that he is trying to bring up.

Hope he improves and if you are worried give the vet a ring tomorrow just for some advice  :hug:

Tepe is sick?
« Reply #1 on: June 05, 2009, 23:19:40 PM »
tepe has been sick twice this evening and is really quiet and wants to be on his own all the time.

we have decided to starve them both for 24 hours and see what happens, i have felt round his tummy and he didn't moan or cry which is a good sign i think

is this a good place to start?
