Over the last couple of days she stopped eating but resumed drinking water. She hasn't been her self, she is somewhat lathargic, and has had diahrea. Yesterday my boyfriend spotted blood in the stool, very small amount. Stool is a lighter color.
Now I was planning on taking her to the vet first thing this morning, but she seems to be feeling better, she ate some wet food and seems little more energetic.
Should I still go to the vet? Or maybe monitor her for another day?
Thanks everyone!
**edited** I also wanted to add that she wouldn't eat anything before, not even her favourite treats... |
oh poor sweet girl. changing foods is VERY hard on their bodies and should b done over a week... i'm very sure that is what bothered her.... and the small about of blood is normal.. her intestines were upset with the diarrhea... but she is eating now??? if that's the case and she isn't as lethargic then i'd keep on the track you are on. Her vet is just going to give her meds which she DOESNT" need.... go back to her old food and slowly go to her new food...
