    Fritz is unwell! He’s been vomiting at 30 minute intervals since 8 o’clock. At first, his dinner came straight back up 5 mins after eating it. Normal dinner, nothing different than usual. Since then, lots of clear liquid and yellowy mucas, REALLY stringy and wobbles like jelly when you clean it up. We think there are specks of blood appearing in it too (in the last hour / hour and a half). He stands uncomfortably for 10 mins after each episode then curls up. Little rest, lip licking and then repeat. Lots of gurgling too. Not sure what it’s all about. He had a nature diet for breakfast as we were out of bones and fish – maybe that? Sure it was in date as he’d had some of the same batch without a problem 2 weeks ago when we were away on holiday.

    Not a happy boy.  :boooo:

    it’s 12.55 am now and he’s just been sick after about a 45 minute pause. Could be a long night . . .

    been to vets… not being seen till 10.15 (their first appointment  :boooo: ) so brought him home and keeping him warm till we go back later… took them a sample of his vomit. He’s not been sick since 7.45 ish.. he was shaking on the sofa so we wrapped him up. Temp is 37.8

    Only thing we can think is if he got hold of a firework when out walking…?  he would love that.. would definitely eat one if he got the chance….
    Or is this a knock on from all that chocolate last week?

    The blood is worrying me  :'(

    What flavour naturediet was it?

    I opened one yesterday (chicken flavour) and it smelt awful, not like usual so I chucked it in the bin and got a different one. 

    Poor Fritz, I hope he gets better soon.  It’s horrid when they’re poorly  🙁

    Have no idea.. but it wasn’t a smelly one.. they are BAD  :vomit:
    He’s staying in on a drip to rehydrate and they are xraying to see if there is a blockage but they think not.. the blood was probably down to the intensity of vomiting for 12 hours… probably anti bi’s when he comes out later.

    Bloody good job he was ill… a woman brought her ferret into the vets.. Fritz had his beady eye on the cage and then she got it out for a cuddle  😮  😮 I pointed out that it might not be such a wise move  ::) Fritz didn’t move a muscle, thank god…  :-*

    Sounds like he’ got a bad dose of a gastric problem.
    Hope he’s better soon

    they called again… they want to keep him on a drip until at least 5 and then might send him to their overnight people cause his botty is so explosive.. he’s been sick again too.. am going in at 5 but waiting for the vet to call me back
