Hi Tan,

Squirt went for a check up this morning and there has been little change in the ulcer. He's still on synulux, the anti-viral famvir and eyedrops and has to go back in 3- 5 days time.
I am grateful that it is not worse but wish it would START to get better.
In himself he is well and putting on weight. He is still a bit sluggish but can move when he wants and must be in some pain with the eye. They gave him an anti inflam jab today.

so more of a present for him then?

Just come back from vet with Squirt as his eye looked different and I was worrying different good or different bad. But its no change. Vet said that a graft (at about £2000!) might not work as its a viral infection so we carry on as we are and hope it gets better.

aw, Angie - so glad your birthday was yesterday and not the day before, cos you had a rotten day then, didn't you

I hope little Squirt gets better really quickly now, and gives you lots more birthday presents

you deserve some breaks

Angiew · « **Reply #125 on:** September 23, 2010, 23:29:11 PM »

Ok, its my birthday today - no congrats as it almost over.

Anyway, This is my best pressie today, squirt and one of his pressies from auntie T.

I do have a better video but as my other pressie is a new pc and its just about up and running but not got all software so it will have to wait until I find all those pesky disks I put somewhere safe....

Tan · « **Reply #124 on:** September 23, 2010, 16:15:19 PM »

Glad ya got the tabs hun and got the meds down him. he don't know what's good for him does he!!

I sooo hope his eye gets better. It must be a bit painful

Sending you and him and all over there lots of love and hugs

Angiew · « **Reply #123 on:** September 23, 2010, 13:36:19 PM »

Well the little sod has just (I think!) had his second dose of the famvir.

He has decided to become a tablet nightmare and succeeded in managing to cough it back up with some spit twice, I think its now in him.......

He obviously does not appreciate the lengths I had to go to to get the stuff in the first place.
He is moving around well but his eye is still a nasty mess... will take him back again tomorrow to check its not getting worse, hopefully it looks worse 'cos the blood supply is healing....

Ann Clarke (Tabby cat) · « **Reply #122 on:** September 21, 2010, 22:27:57 PM »

You poor thing you must be completely fed up. Hope you can get the drugs sorted out and sending lots of hugs and get well wishes to little Squirt

cazzer · « **Reply #121 on:** September 21, 2010, 18:38:22 PM »

Poor little Squirt. Typical I had quite a few of these Famvir when I owned Beau my Herpes carrying raggie. I gave them all to his new owner and she hasn't needed them since he's had no more problems since he has been an only cat. I do recall they were very expensice about £70 for 10. My vet had no problem at all getting them. I think although my branch didn't have any another one in the chain did.

Tan · « **Reply #120 on:** September 21, 2010, 10:24:58 AM »

Hope ya can get the drugs for him hun.

Sending loads of love and get well thoughts to little Squirt

And loads for you too

Did ya get a pressie from auntie T for squirt?

Angiew · « **Reply #119 on:** September 21, 2010, 10:22:36 AM »

will have to try and sort out later today so meds may be here by tomorrow.
In the meantime they have all been having some of the L Lysine that su (schmew) sent me from Biscuit's meds.

Funnily enough, the dudley vet also suggested using that so I am eternally grateful tp Su and Biscuit for having sent that to me a couple of weeks ago.

Crysannia · « **Reply #118 on:** September 20, 2010, 23:44:23 PM »

I cannot believe how much trouble you have had

poor baby! Thank you so much for all your trouble - come on Squirt and brother (has brother got a name yet?)

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #117 on:** September 20, 2010, 23:41:45 PM »

This is terrible and your vet should have got it for you.

Kocka had a bad eye problem and the eye vet she saw said she needed drops that were used for humans and only place to get them was Moorfields eye hospital and they were very expensive. She got them from Moorfields and Kocka was treated as an inpatient, they didnt work as they made her too stressed but they went to another needy cat and Kocka got better by herself. These were not licenced for use on cats either.

I do hope that this can be sorted out for little Squirt.

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #116 on:** September 20, 2010, 23:22:23 PM »

Poor baby

Hope you can finally get the meds tomorrow, he certainly hasn't not had it through want of trying

JackSpratt · « **Reply #114 on:** September 20, 2010, 22:04:37 PM »

Aghhhh. Hope you get things sorted tomorrow.

Angiew · « **Reply #113 on:** September 20, 2010, 21:42:06 PM »

From the ridiculous to the sublime.

Filming done. New script provided. phoned up local to me chemist to get items ordered for tomorrow and then get back 6-30 with a message saying they could not find the drug.

Admittedly, the line at Dudley Zoo (where we went to spend time between filming) was poor but I did spell out the name and they have written it starting with an S

they could find the right drug but not the made up one - hence i cannot pick it up tomorrow

must be divine intervention telling me not to get it for him. Honestly!

Squirts eye not any better and his brother now has a small ulcer on eye, so back to vet tomorrow with both of them.

Daisymac · « **Reply #112 on:** September 20, 2010, 18:44:48 PM »

Hoping all is OK

Shirley · « **Reply #111 on:** September 20, 2010, 16:52:21 PM »

Only just catching up again with this Angie-hope you managed to get the meds today and Squirt is still holding his own.

Should have read this properly-i've been past Dudley today on the way to see Mikey, could've popped to see you! Where was the programme being done?

Hope you're managing to get some rest (??)
