Just after making the appointment he pooped and it was liquid and completely red with blood. It scared the hell out of me.

He's not allowed to eat anything today and I have to give him small amounts of water every hour. Poor little guy. He is still very perky considering....

When Alfie eats he blows up like a balloon. I spoke to my usual vet a month ago and he suggested feeding 4 small meals a day. I am doing this but he still sometimes blows up. I wonder if this is an ongoing problem which has suddenly got worse? I saw my normal vets colleague today who doesn't speak english so my other half is coming with me tonight to explain this. I didn't know how to myself.

I'll keep you all posted.

Thanks for all the kind words.

Hey hey, any news about the little guy?? I sure hope he is doing better!!?? Please post soon!
