Last night around midnight and 14 hours on from her distress she took as much boiled chicken as I'd let her have. Prior to this she'd been shaking spasmodically? Within twenty minutes of eating she entered a gentle sleep and the shakes stopped. This morning she had a poop, which was very firm almost dry. Her little bum was very open afterwards and she had a few 'candles' hanging down. I bathed her with warm water and then applied some Vaseline. She then had some chicken strips and freshly boiled rice - and wanted more. I have also noticed this morning in the bright sunlight that the facial fur around her eyes was tinted pink, perhaps more evidence of the diet not being right?
My wife has been away for the last two weeks visiting her folk in Belarus and is not home until a week tomorrow. Holly desperately needs a trim at the moment. She has a soft curly coat and is difficult for me with one arm to keep knot free. Also the rear area needs cutting to save her distress after her toilet. Accordingly therefore, she's off to the trimmers tomorrow to alleviate her stress and keep her clean, as she now seems settled with her tummy problem, which I can only put down to the food brand change not reacting well with her? She's also grumbling at her sister again, a welcome return to normality. After the 'bidet' treatment she's now gone off to her little 'occasional' private basket with a very forlorn look on her little face
