Hi, last post was about the inside color of Puffs throat. Turns out the black color is normal and we also ran a fungal culture on her skin because her head looked yellowish. We got results yesterday and shes fungal FREE! Were so happy. Were still trying to beat this respiratory infection though. We have her on oral Marbofloxacin (1.5ML), Ceftazidime injections (0.06ML) every three days and were also nebulizing her with a Gentamicin and Saline mix (Genta is 1ML and sal is 5ML). She has been on the Marbo for a month, but we haven't seen any improvement. Therefore, we are considering changing her medication. Currently, she weighs 590 grams, and we are reducing her food intake to help her lose some. \/
Regarding the hard urate, she didn't poop for a whole day. As a result, we decided to give her a bath, and after that, she finally pooped. Her poop looked fine, but her urate was very long, thick, and as hard as a rock. What are the main causes for that besides dehydration? Her eyes do look sunken, but she has urate along with her poop. We've been feeding her soaked cucumbers every day to ensure she gets enough water. We also soak her greens. Is she getting too much water ?
I still need to carefully feed her by putting the food in her mouth since she is not interested in eating by herself.
Thank you
