Chloe and the vet
Chloe's been on the antithyroid medication for a couple of months now,
and while she seems more alert and lively, her problems with diarrhoea and peeing randomly all over the place haven't gone away. So, return visit to the vet today. More blood samples. The vet thinks maybe her thyroid is still too active. I should get the results tomorrow. She's more relaxed about going to the vet than any other cat I've had. Just sits calmly in the box and purrs, even though the trip was on a noisy crowded bus with occasional barking dogs. Sweet and dignified old lady. I expect she'll jump up on the bed tomorrow morning as soon as she hears me waking up, and as usual she'll sit quietly beside me and purr until I'm awake enough to reach for the Dreamies. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- e m a i l : j a c k @ c a m p i n . m e . u k Jack Campin, 11 Third Street, Newtongrange, Midlothian EH22 4PU, Scotland mobile 07800 739 557 http://www.campin.me.uk Twitter: JackCampin |

Purrs for Chloe and her thyroid. I hope it can be controlled soon. How does she seem now? What were the results? -- CAPSLOCK–Preventing Login Since 1980. |

What were the results? Vet says the thyroid seems to be well under control, so we don't know what's going on. They'll test some stool samples next week. Some of the symptoms fit gluten intolerance, but that's a wild guess. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- e m a i l : j a c k @ c a m p i n . m e . u k Jack Campin, 11 Third Street, Newtongrange, Midlothian EH22 4PU, Scotland mobile 07800 739 557 http://www.campin.me.uk Twitter: JackCampin |

Thanks for the update! Stool samples came up blank - no infection. But the problem has completely stopped. All we did was take her off gluten-containing cat treats, like Dreamies - her tinned food was already gluten-free. So gluten was the problem all along, and it didn't take much to really mess her up. A shopping trip to the Chinese supermarket is in order, to get her some dried anchovies as replacement treats. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- e m a i l : j a c k @ c a m p i n . m e . u k Jack Campin, 11 Third Street, Newtongrange, Midlothian EH22 4PU, Scotland mobile 07800 739 557 http://www.campin.me.uk Twitter: JackCampin |

It does sound like a gluten intolerance. I sure hope that turns out to be the problem and the treat problem sounds taken care of. -- CAPSLOCK–Preventing Login Since 1980. |
