I spoke too soon, after noticing Suki not being as active as
normal I retested her urine (vet supplied some test strips). Suki had
tested negative for blood and leucocytes 2 days after antibiotic
course (10 days of baytril ending 21 Nov).

Urine sample left at vets.

Baytril course started before actual vet visit. After 14 days of baytril =

tested again on day 16

Leucocytes 125-500/=B5L
Nitrites....... positive
Protein....... 300 mg/dL
pH............. 5.5
Blood ........ 80-200 ery/=B5L (Haemolyzed)
SG............. 1.030
Ketone....... negative
Glucose...... negative

So no difference really, unlike first baytril course. Much more active
than before baytril though.
Back to the vets again on Monday 31/12. Will take another urine
sample.

Tony (not a vet), Sugar and Suki.
In memory of Sally and Sue.
