Eell everyone, a wee sad update im affraid. Gotup thus morning to a deflated flat bum on our wee George. so not a happy ending im sad to say. So gutted but thankyou all for your help, we all tried our best. :-( itll be sad to see him go. Im not sure whats the best to do with him now
i don't feel thats true tho, everythings that everyone says about a really bad smell, his bum deflating, nothing like this is happening, i dont wanna loose hope, i fel like hes still there but struggling
ok so we done what everyone has suggested, we turned him over and force fed him water but it stayed in a bubble and didn't go in, we also put his mouth area in water checked him today and there's no change in him, hes not curled in a ball but that's because we tried to spread his legs out a bit...
also could you help with a wee thing? do you suggest i leave him in the ICU for now and then do what you have suggested. or do i force water now and put him back in the ICU?
thanks everyone for all the positive feedback, its so reassuring hearing what you all have to say. i shall try all these options. so far update is, changed towels in ICU yesterday and no movement what so every. when i touched bum or back legs pushed gently and no movement still. when we changed...
ok so touched his back legs and nothing, i shall leave him in there till tomorrow so i dont annoy him when we change his paper towels. and see what happens then. if anyone else has any suggestions they are really appreciated :)
