I am relieved to hear that Zena has had a reasonably normal poo

[there is a joke about pooing guts out but I do not want to ruin peoples' breakfasts so will desist from posting it!]

Thanks Tangutica. This has been ongoing since April this year, but it was intermittent sickness back then - almost had the endescope but the vet said she looks far too healthy to have any serious problems, so you kind of go with it don'tcha! Never, ever had blood in her stools before yesterday though, that's a big worry, the amount of it, and my gut instinct really, is to take her to the vet tomorrow. I'll sleep on it!



Thanks WhichPets, yes, no change in her activity level, although she's happy to be quiet and resting. Then I worry about that coz it's not like her, so I go over to her to see if she's ok and up she gets, runs and gets her ball, so then I know she's fine, so I just can't work it all out.



I've never done the starving bit Bev unless the dog is telling me, then I'm happy to starve them until they're ready to eat (had all that with Cassie didn't I ). The vet told me yesterday to do the fish and potato which I had told him I would be feeding her, as I know my own vets are against this 24 hour starving for some reason, maybe it's a good one? I'm loathe to give her anything myself, especially if it's something to bind her up, when it could be something her body wants rid of if you see what I mean? Why didn't he give me something yesterday I wonder? He could have given me that tube of grey stuff I've given her before as a puppy when she had a bad bout of diarrhea? He didn't even want to examine her, he said he didn't want to stress her out I think I'm going to the vets tomorrow, my gut is telling me I need to. Thanks Bev.
