Hey guys well my little man is now 1kg 100g!! He's getting stronger and
stronger and the metacam has now been stopped and so far no tooth
grinding! He goes back out with the others in the daytime now after
gradually reintroducing him to the colder temperatures and the rest of
the (dare i say it?) GROUP!!
Thats right everyone! 1 group! They are finally all getting on!!
Also i have started using megazorb on the shed floor and its great
stuff the ferrets love it and as soon as the chick crumb is gone i will
use it in the litter trays as well! I strongly suggest using it its
fabulous!
So a very happy start to the new year lets hope its a sign of things to
come! I wish everyone a very happy new year for them and their furries
and hope that rehoming is a lot easier this year for rescues!!
Lots of love,
Becky, Boots, Maisy, Tim, Ruff and Tumble, Callie and Luna xxxxxxxx

Well guys its been a while since I updated and I am thrilled to say that Tumble
is still eating dried food by himself and his poops are completely back
to normal. He is more active and grinding his teeth a lot less. As far
as we know he is doing really well since the metacam (4 drops daily)
but it could just be him and not the metacam. I will weigh him tonight
and see if he's put any weight on. He was about 1kg last time i
weighed him (monday) so hopefully he has put on some weight!

Well he is still eating dried food this morning The vet rang this morning after speaking to GWR and is going to put Tumble
on some metacam and see how he gets on with that for the next few days.
He said the zantac or antepsin is not really neccesary now as he needs
something stronger for the pain. He basicly also got the same info that
Rosie told me yesterday that the hypothermia could have made the kidney
levels go up and the same with the liver levels. The vet also said
because he hasn't been eating properly this could affect the liver
levels as well. This is very encouraging. Will update you all later as
to how he gets on with the metacam
