Hi Uli

I said that they were doing great on the Canine ID but when I checked their stools last night, they had gone slightly sloppy and the green stuff is back again. It isn't all green, more like it's brown but has green lumps of goo in it (sorry I know thats gross!)

I had them from a rescue that has been going for about 16 years. We've had them since they were about 5 weeks old as they didn't have a mom to be weaned from. I never noticed anything wrong with their poo when we first had them, it's more since we weaned them off the soft biscuits and kitten food at about 9 weeks.

I think I am going to take a sample in to the vets today as he hasn't seen the green stuff yet. He gave us antiobiotics to give them by saringe but I don't think they have been taking much of it in as they tend to spit a lot of it out (who can blame them.)I've heard the vet can give injections of antiobiotics so I'll enquire about that too.

Thanks for the info on James Wellbeloved (you too Chris)
