I'm going to the vet with one of my pets, but I still wanna have your thoughts about it.
My Zori is now 9 years old, she's weighted 528g for as long as I can remember. I eventually stopped weighing her often cause she'd act as usual, eat as usual and poop as usual and weight the same 528g every single time for years. Last time I weighted her, she was down to 468g :wacko: Needless to say I freaked out and felt horrible. But I'm still wondering how come she could loose that much weight but still eat as usual! And she does not waste food that much, she eats hay, her poop is fine, takes her treats and apple twigs, I just don't know what's happenning!
When I hold her she does feel skinnier on her belly, but I still can't feel her bones, she's not skinny as some rescues are when they've been malnourished. She's just thinner I guess.
For background info, I got her at 4 years old, she had one litter with her previous owner, she's been alone since I got her cause she's not getting along well with the other females. She's got no ped, well half a ped let's say loll
Any idea what could cause something like that? What kind of tests should be run on her? My vet is pretty good with chins but not perfect, so I prefer to get all the information I can before.
