Rapid response is crucial; if a pet is unresponsive…

Ms Ong took WinWin to see the vet again this morning. WinWin’s blood PCV has further dropped to 20%.  The vet explained that with IMHA, this is expected to happen, that is, the blood PCV will drop gradually. In fact, in severe cases, the blood PCV drops very fast, sometimes a fast as within 24…

Ms Ong took Fate to the vet’s yesterday for a check-up. Fate was given a clean bill of health and given her first vaccination. All is well and Fate is growing well. Ms Ong says she will cover the entire bill for this.

Updates from Ms Ong: Ms Ong has been shuttling to and from her cafe to the clinic so that she can attend to Cash’s needs every 2 hours. Her sessions are at 10am, 12noon, 2pm and if possible, 4pm.  The 4pm session is tricky as her burger stall opens at about 3.30pm. But Ms Ong’s…

Ms Ong has the following encouraging updates today: Cash does not have diarrhoea anymore today. This is absolutely fantastic news! The vet says this means she is absorbing the medication and the food. It is amazing that Cash is responding positively to a change of treatment and medication in such a short time. When Cash…

Ms Ong shared the vet’s report which I have paraphrased here: Cash is in an extremely severe condition and is expected to die. She has an enteropathy that results in voluminous watery diarrhoea with mucus, blood and also what…
