    chins & issues

    Thanks guys. I feel a little better knowing that others have gone thru something similar. I still really miss my Jackie Boy. I'm thinking Klinger needs another filing.....I'm feeling some moisture on his mouth. Just worried about him while I'm in the hospital. But I'm doing everything I can do...

    litter pan

    I used to get my square tins from the dollar store & would just toss them when they got nasty but because they were so light my chins would often tip or dump them if they were not wedged in a good spot. I saw the glass Pyrex ones on sale at my local food store & grabbed them. Now my boys can...

    RIP Jack

    After a long fight with a URI & Pneumonia & tooth problems I had to make the difficult decision to let my sweet violet Jack cross the Rainbow Bridge. I rescued him 3 or 4 years ago and he was quickly one of my favorites. He had the cutest curly tail and was so sweet and handsome. I have owned...

    Amakacin & pneumonia

    The vet prescribed a second round Amikacin but due to his weight loss, I'm not able to get it into him properly & without hurting him. I have restarted the baytril & metacam but He is still not better & is not gaining any weight with the hand feeding. I have made one of the most difficult...

    Ear infection and meds.

    my vet flavors the baytril and i almost always supplement their feed with syringe feeding while they are on it to make sure they keep eating. i agree with peggy, i would also check if they vet would consider using sulfa. it is usually the first line of defense when treating a more mild infection...

    Amakacin & pneumonia

    thank you. i feel a little better. i am being extremely diligent in administering his meds and handfeeding him. which takes a while because i can only give him a little at a time or he chokes on it. :( i have also covered a couple sides of his cage to make sure there are no drafts. my chins...

    Amakacin & pneumonia

    So while Jack is not gasping for air, I still feel like his breathing is labored. He is pooping ok prob cause he is being handfed. But he just does not look good. Not having any experience with pneumonia I really don't know what to expect. How many days after being on all these antibiotics...
