I will mention it to Andrew, will wait and see what results I get from Eva's sample before sending one off for Bernie as it costs £50 a pop for what may come back as inconclusive. Should that be the case i may be better having them blood tested. Will discuss it with Andrew next week.

Re: Eva unwell


Oh bless Bernie, sounds like a bug he's caught from Eva then? Glad she is feeling better though, least chances are it's the same problem with Bernie. x

Re: Eva unwell


Do you think its a bug they both carry that is harmless to them when they are "on form" and when under the weather up it pops....

Certainly seems that way and thats what happened the last time too. Pleased to report that both seem to be better today.

Must be something like that, I am only guessing though. Will have to see if the stool sample shows anything. Failing that we would be looking into having bloods done.

Re: Eva unwell


Here's a thought, dont know why I didnt think of this before but do you think it's possible that I have maybe taken the bug home from Benji? Or vice versa?
Both he and Eva became ill last weekend.

Re: Eva unwell


Disquieting thought, Elaine; I have no idea if dogs and cats can share diseases. Hope it's not so ......

Re: Eva unwell


Sorry, forgot to update this. Andrew said it is highly unlikely that I passed on any bug from Benji to my cats.
Feacal sample hasnt shown anything but that doesnt mean that there is nothing, if you know what I mean. The next step would be to do bloods but I am a little reluctant coz it would mean having to have her knocked out.
We have decided just to wait a while and see how she goes.
So far she is just fine again although back to pooping on the floor . May give Reiki Bob a call, maybe a few more sessions and she'll relax a little more and use the tray again.

Re: Eva unwell


D'you know Elaine, I was beginning to come to the same conclusion? I've had a dodgy tummy for a week or so - nothing dramatic . . . just 'not quite right' and today poor Balie has had the most awful trots He's obviously hungry because he's currently wolfing down the boiled chicken but I was thinking that maybe whatever bug I've had has crossed species and is causing him a problem. Not really sure how plausible that is . . .

Well certainly with things such as worms, camphylabactor and such like.
