Quick update. Still waiting for morning to come so we can see the vet. She slept most of the afternoon (typical). Hasn't pooped since noon (not typical). Shes been forced some pedialyte a dose of metoclopramide. Tried Critical Care but the syringe clogged and it got all over her. Not a happy...

I'm assuming hairball as well. Shes shedding a lot lately and we haven't been brushing her as much as we would like because she hates it and always runs away. Definitely going to be forcing brushing from now on. Pedialyte is unflavored but we put a bit of apple juice into it per the breeders...

My 11 month old spayed female lionhead is going through GI stasis :( I don't know what to do. Two nights ago Piper started refusing kale. Which is her FAVOURITE. And we noticed she was hiding away and didn't want us around. She had stopped eating and pooping. She had a hard time getting...
