Ok so here are some pics of my guy Cody…
Friday of last week we were woken at 4am with screaming (literally like a banshee), when I entered the kitchen he was standing all contorted (picture 1) the poor guy had urinated all over the kitchen (totally unlike him) and he refused to move from his position… :eek:
By then he was whinging and crying (poor pet) yet he wouldn’t come near me or move out of this spot. I thought he has twisted gut etc. I know something was wrong.
After a while I lifted him on the couch… waiting for my vet to open… he cried and whinged while sleeping on my lap (he is VERY soft), EVENTUALLY vet open at 8am we were outside waiting… she took him in straight away, although once inside the vets door, no whinging or crying in fact he was jumping around….
after general exam could find nothing actually wrong with him, as he’s 11.5 years of age we agreed on a battery of tests… full bloods, urine, abdomen ultra sound, x-rays etc.… turns out he had a kidney stone!!
The poor guy must have been in a lot of pain passing that.
Second two pics are him not happy at all when he came back home… poor pet. (please excuse his bed, it was a little on the dirty side)... he even took "Harvey" his teddy to bed for a bit of comfort
The fright I got with the cries I can tell you it wasn’t for the faint hearted…
one a positive note least she did loads of tests and looked to make sure nothing on toward was wrong plus she said for an 11.5 year old he is in great “nick” and very healthy.

^^^^ omg, every pet owners worst nightmare!
POOR Cody (hes gorgeous, the sad little face of him in Pic 1
) and poor you. Great to get a clean bill of health now, and good to know that it was "only" a gallstone (ouch!)
Spoil him rotten today (or would he notice that hes being MORE spoiled?!)
Did the vet mention how to prevent any more stones forming?0 -

Ah yes, the joy of trying to photograph a black dog! (or a dog with black bits).
I took Finn to the dog park for the first time today and got chatting to some lovely people. He acted like a 4 year old on his first day of school but he did make a friend, who then tried to climb into my bag. Smelling of treats at a dog park makes you a very popular human, it seems.
There's the Great White Dope on the left

Has liver/kidney failure and going to vets tonight to get blood test to see how bad. Hopefully not his last birthday:(
Edit: Blood results back, going into kidney failure. Won't be a 15th birthday:(:(:(
The immortal Tintin has graced us with another year. Can't really believe he has done it. He is in relatively good form. Still looking for his walks everyday and his super nuggles every 10 minutes. On a home made renal diet of mince meat, jasmine rice, eggs, egg shells, carrots, parsnips, crushed multivitamin tablets and omega-three oil. Along with his cardiac medications. Birthday Fillet steak was a super treat for him and even exceeded his protein intake for the day!
Death to the enemies of the Tintin! He will outlive them all...............0 -

Not chips, but roast potatos. He didn't eat them till his fillet steak was finished. A great age for your dog, 17!!!ah thats great! he looks fantastic!
to hell with diets on his special day! On my dogs 17th birthday plate, we blew every rule out of the park
Um whats that on his plate beside the steak?!? Looks like chips?
Wish Tintin another good year xxx0 -

Isn't she pretty? Her eyes are HUGE! She has a bad limp from a broken paw when she was little. It healed wrong but it doesn't stop her zooming around! 0 -

You manage to find the cutest furries ever!
:cool:
The mad thing is, though, that every animal we've had was left on the shelf or has something "wrong" with them. Isabella was as adult when we got her, and nobody wanted her because she was a "biter" (she SO wasn't a biter). Same with Twitch. Shade was on the rescue website for 6 months before we fell in love with her, with some people saying that she "wasn't a full cat" because she only has one eye:mad:. This new little lady has a badly healed front paw which means she limps and slips a little when she's jumping. She came from a very loving home who just couldn't keep her, sadly. Well, luckily for us because she's so perfect in our eyes!
