Re: Poorly Jerry


Erin I'm sure with time your boy will adapt, sometimes they are more sensitive than we think - he will pick up any stress you have to and I know the big move has been stressful for you both

Keep on doing what you are doing it will help he now has his Mum back to himself and doesn't have to share you for a while

Re: Poorly Jerry


I think he will settle in time, rehoming him would just stress him out even more....I know how hard it is Erin, going through it will Leo at the mo....He got better, then it flared up again, think we are on the road to recovery now though...

Thanks Kazz, Im hoping that I can get him sorted with access ouside somehow otherwise I feel I may have to rehome him Ill try everything before it gets to that but the poor boy is so miserable at the moment its heart breaking to watch I dont want to keep putting him through vet visits, stress of taking pills etc when all he wants to do is get outside

Erin, he's only had one vet visit so far. I still think that a urine sample is worth doing even if it only proves to be negative.

As I have already said, Ill try what ever I can afford, I love that little dude so much, and after everything thats gone on this past year and rehoming Milo and Tink and Choc and Lil, Im not giving up on my Jerry boy without a fight, but I do fear I could be fighting a losing battle
Giving up on him a little quickly here, he has come through a hell of a lot in a relatively short space of time. He doesnt need you to be negative, he needs you to be possitive and strong.

Re: Poorly Jerry


Im absolutely not giving up on him Elaine, maybe worded that wrong. And what I meant by he vet visits is that if this going to be a re-occurring thing then it is going to be constant vet visits, I didnt mean he had been several times already.

Im trying not to be negative, as I have already said I will try everything that I can, we are looking into a cat pen/run outside, we are looking into that cat fence off the other thread, Ill even trying getting harness on him and see if that helps. Please dont think for one second that Im giving up on him because Im not.

Ive spoken to the vets and am popping in today to get the stuff for a urine sample.

Re: Poorly Jerry


Good luck getting the sample, Erin. I do hope as time passes his stress level will go down; he has indeed been thru a lot lately, poor guy.

Re: Poorly Jerry


Good luck with the sample, with regards to the invisible fence though, I dont think it would work now there is a puppy in the equation, cat pen would probably be better.

Re: Poorly Jerry


just posting to for erin to let you know that jerry is fine. the urine test did not show crystal or stones but the white blood sell count was high which could be because he is fighting off a infection. the vet is going to run the urine test again in a couple of weeks if there are still abnormal white blood sell count then he is going to do blood tests.
jerry is doing well though at present.
