Re: Tail pull - short term bladder management

He says we cannot stop him putting her to sleep,We are thinking about another vet as we have l...

We would have liked the tail off earlier but he would not. After 3 months no improvement so off comes the tail and ...

Re: Urine infection & skin irritation

Hi Critters, we asked the vet about learning how to express her & they said No, no need as she empties herself now during the day. At the beginning I was taking her to the vets daily so they could express her as they said we would do more harm with her internal injuries, but over the course of a...

Re: Urine infection & skin irritation

Good Morning Bendymom, she certainly is beautiful to us. She had her tail removed a week today, and has been home a few days now & seems ok within herself. She is still peeing and pooing anywhere at the moment but she does go into the litter trays but rarely does anything. She finished antibioti...

Re: Urine infection & skin irritation

Thank you so much for replying. Amber has legs, belly, and bottom area shaved by the vets to keep all areas clear and to keep an eye on her legs etc. We discussed using diapers with the vet but they have said no as she needs to have the skin healed before thinking about putting a diaper on her. We h...

She had surgery for hernia due to the fall from a great height, then once she went back they noticed a problem with her tail. We paid ...
