Interesting about the Leukaemia shot tho, mine have a booster every year... ?
Haha, he was giving me 'headbutts' when she was listening to his chest but dad had to take over when it came to checking temperature because you need to get him in a gentle head-lock! (the cat, that is - not my Dad! ).

Lol, cats do not like having their temps taken; can't really blame them! Glad he's almost back to normal!

Re: Update on Billy


One of my old cats used to 'sit' when having his temp taken. It used to startle the vet who got worried about losing his thermometer

When Bubbles was under for her dental, we had her microchipped and it has the temperature on it too so from now on she only has to be scanned instead of poked in the oopsie I'm sure she's very grateful

Re: Update on Billy


So glad to have the update on Billy and really interested about the microchip with temperature on it, Grete. Was this a "usual" microchip or did you ask for the soopa-doopa special version? What a grand idea!

When they asked if we wanted her microchipped they told us about both versions - the standard one was cheaper but the temperature reading one wasn't actually that much more expensive so we readily went for that one Bubbles doesn't know how lucky she is *grin*

Re: Update on Billy


Leila also has one of those temperature microchips. Our vets were promoting them at the time and it didn't cost me anymore than the usual one.

Glad Billy is back to normal they are a real worry.
