After a realy bad night (apologies ) l looked at Hoover in the cold light of day and realized that the reason
he could not eat properly is because his front insisors are badly over grown.
:oops:,

Ii just hope my vet will find the time tomorrow to bur them without a GA when i take him in.

Its no wonder they call us slaves ,
 
:rant:l still do not understand why he is talking about opperating on the testical that is remaining after he had the
One testical removal and the tubs to the other one snipped (nutering proceder)

How can that help him poo better ??
 
Hope you can get his teeth sorted gizzy. I'm not sure about the testical thing, perhaps, if something has gone wrong with healing and scar tissue etc it could have an impact?
 
When Sweep was neutered they couldn't get all the fat out of the left hand side and they must have tried because it took him longer to recover than Fudge RIP and Dillbot and then he developed an abscess which thankfully cleared up. He has suffered with impaction ever since. When the impaction gets really bad, we give him fibreplex usually. Funnily when he had his eye removed earlier this year and was on Zithromax, I started feeding him about six of Rose or Dill's poo's every day (whole into his mouth which was rather dangerous for my fingers - individually of course) and his impaction cleared up. We adopted Hank because he has impaction following his neutering except his isn't the same kind of squishy lump as often as Sweep's is. I hope Hoover feels better soon and you manage to get his teeth sorted. Sending you both best wishes
 
I hope that you can have both issues sorted. Please make sure that you have got the premolars checked, too. Overgrown front teeth are very often caused by overgrown back teeth. All the best!
