- Sob story first:
- Well yesterday was my birthday and I had to take my (poor) Fila (7yr old,
- fixed, male, orange domestic) to the vet with some form of blockage (FUS).
- This after keeping me up till 3am the night before worrying about him.
-
- Today I find that I don't get him back cuz his bladder's nerves are sleeping,
- And, when I do, I have to change diets (from IAMS to Hills -- c/d?).
- Meanwhile, my other kid (Cameo, 7yrs, fixed, female, seapoint mix) had her
- shots and isn't too happy being alone. =(
-
- I WANT MY FILA !!! (there I feel better now).
-
- Question time:
- I read the FAQ about FUS and was wondering if I should really, really worry
- about long term diet -- or will switching to the hills (c/d?) be good enough?
- -- gee I hope they eat it, they didn't like the Science Diet stuff but really
- took to IAMS. I'd still like to feed them a can (IAMS) every once in a
- while and treats too.
-
- Also the only thing that's changed drastically in the last 7 yrs is that I
- switched to Litter Purrfect clumping litter (ala Costco) about a year ago --
- and I kinda wonder if the crystals may have started forming cuz he was
- licking particles off himself. The vet did mention that sometimes they just
- get ill and then you have to make a diet change.
-
- Boy is it a good thing I know my kids -- my housemate just thought Fila was
- being "mellow" and was fine (this being the day I took him in too).
