Splat had to visit the vet :(

Ive been really worried about Splat 
last night we came home to find sloppy poop with bright red blood
Splat was and still is as normal, running round like a nutter, eating, drinking etc so thought I would ring the vet today for their advice!
They didn't seem worried, but I was as she hadn't opened her bowels (still hasn't)
So took her in just to be sure! The vet had a real good feel around, said her stomach and intestines feel normal, said she has formed poo in her and no apparent blockages! Checked her temperature which was normal.
Outcome was she didn't know what it was for definate and isn't worried as everything is as shluld be as far as she could tell! So prescribed 5 days of antibiotics and 10 days of probiotics so fingers crossed its nothing serious! I'll be happier once she has been to the loo again as its now been over 24hrs!
Anyone else experienced this?

Oh no, not little Splat ! fingers crossed that it was just a one-off & she'll be posing for more photos soon x"Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it" Einstein 19510

my first thought was worms but the vet obviously ruled that out. Splat might have just picked up something that didn't agree with him.
Bless him, it's such a worry when our little pets are poorly. Hope he makes a quick recovery

Hope she's managed to open her bowels this morning for you.0

What sort of animal is Splat?“You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”0

Just as well I didn't suggest she might have parvo then :rotfl:“You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”0 -
