Last night just seemed to vanish, so a quick update from my phone for now.
My vet doesn't think it's worms but they're both getting a new dose of wormer just in case.
Chester had a slight temperature so he thinks it may be an infection. So he's on a probiotic as well as panacur & he got an antibiotic injection.
Told the vet everything I've been feeding him & he's told me to change their dry food, so I've done that too. Apparently the dried food they're on gets the hard sell from pets at home as a high quality food because they produce it, but he said that it's not great nutritionally.
They've both gained weight, which is great news!!
Even better, the vet said to give it a week before seeing a change, but Chester boy did a big solid poo this morning! Never thought I'd be so excited about cat poo!
Seeing a change in his behaviour too, he's been crying lots when he's sleepy and wanting to be alone in his bed. But today he's back to sleeping on me. I'm currently wearing him like a scarf ^-^
It was quite emotional seeing our vet. I haven't seen him since Bailey died. And as Bailey took ill late at night, my own vet didn't see him. He sent me a really nice letter when he saw on their records that Bailey had been put to sleep.
He was lovely last night, so pleased to see us & said he was so glad I had new cats as the world needs more pet owners like me. How nice is that?
The staff in the vets were all over the monsters, they know me really well from all my visits with Jake & Bailey. One of the vet assistants got all choked up. But she absolutely adored Bailey. She always held him when he had bloodctaken.
So, fingers crossed my wee Chester-Pester is on the mend!
If not, the vet will take swabs & get them analysed. But I'm hopeful that we're on the right track with him
