kidney problem.
Larry, oliver never seem to have any pain associated
with his kidney and other various problems (except when
he was plugged and couldnt urinate 3 different times,
requiring an emergency vet visit to express him - that
is why i make sure he gets enough h20). Oliver also
seems to have a great quality of life, chrips every
morning and chases all the other kids everyday.
Have you checked the archives for kidney info? good
luck, Dee
