@Daisy6 as she only weighs 240g, the vet calculated her blood mass is at approximately 14ml. He needed 6ml to run tests. He managed to get 1.25ml instead and broke it into 3 tubes.

Liver, kidney, pancreas function
He isn’t sure if they will be able to accept it either. Before...
Colloidal Silver spray and Hexarinse. Definitely rodent ulcers, my girl has them. That was the vets advice - she is currently nursing, so cant have steroids and antibiotics (vet treatment for rodent ulcers)
This may sound odd...try chicken free diet, probiotic (forti flora) and a tablespoon per day of plain live yogurt. Cats can develop allergies. Yes Eosinophil is linked to parasites, but it is also linked to intolerance and allergies, but if PCR wasnt performed to know which parasite it is (if it...
Predisone and Predisolone are steroids. One kills bacteria (such as Bartonella - from ticks) and one reduces the swelling of the intestinal walls in IBD. My girl had both...She wasnt a picky eater, but she had BAD RUNS (couldnt hold herself if she jumped).
A course later (4 weeks) - she was...
Hi All,
I am reaching out because my baby (who has been to the vets) is currently being investigated for Congenital Hyperthyroidism.
There isn't much available on the net for this, because its rare (I personally think its underdiagnosed, as kittens fail to thrive and progress from 3 weeks of...
Submitted their samples today from yesterday. Was under instruction, to keep them at a room temperature.
Snap tests, negative. PCR will be done. 4 days till it comes back
@Sarthur2.... Today. Archie did a brown very very soft poo. Not watery... I was over the moon. Luna... Hasn't pooed yet. Still waiting. 24 hours.
Smell... Still smells a bit. But not like yesterday. Very body odour like! Not poo like.
They're on amoxicillin at the moment @Sarthur2
I have 2 weeks from last friday to get their poo to firm. Failing that...Luna will be booked in, for a laparoscopy and biopsies. Vet view is "last resort"... lets hope for a poop fairy @Mamanyt1953 to come and sprinkle some magic firming dust...
@jcat Totally unrelated. Different breeders. I checked the lineage too - no relation at all! The vet doesnt want to do allergy testing as in UK its not very accurate.
We eliminated treats completely - it has been over a week. Sphynx dry was eliminated at the weekend...They graze on dry during...
@mrsgreenjeens. PCR was done on both of them, twice. Same as ELISA, also twice for both.
The vet (senior surgeon, cat specialist and a cardiologist) hadn't diagnosed her with IBD yet. The next step he said is to do laparoscopy and to take biopsies from all thickened walls, on both of them...
@Sallysoo She's been on forti flora from the day I got her. My other furkid has been in it for the last 5 years too.
We also tried Jarrows Saccharomyces 5 billion. I gave her and Archie less than what the breeder recommended, and they both had leaky diarrhoea (fart equaled leaks).

Hi all.
I'm new to the site, but I have an urgent problem. Both my sphynxes have diarrhoea.
Timeline:
August 2017 - Luna diagnosed with Bartonella, and went on a treatment. She retested negative after completion on 30th September.
16th September, Luna went onto Almo Nature Sensitive.
24th...
