Ketones - manage to get a pee sample from him! Easy said than done! :P Well when I feed him later, he will be on a table, so hopefully he'll go (pee)!

LOL told him all the comments!
 
Darling Tonic :smitten: No more biscuits then?

Kelly, you know how upset I am at this news.
I am confused though - why is he on antibiotics for diabetes?

Sending you all so much love as ever :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

Antibiotics for diabetes -

Because it is more a suspected diabetes. Diabetics guineas are so hard to treat and get the correct amount of insulin. It's not like you can monitor blood sugar levels daily :(
Taking regular blood and injecting them for diabetes can make them ill through the actual stress of having the injections.

So fighting a losing battle :(

Also because of the fact it could be a kidney failure, insulin and antibiotics will only make him comfortable, not make him better. It is unreversable :(

He's had 3 syringes this morning and a load of carrot, tops and cabbage :)
 
What are you going to do next kel? :-\

All of us will probably end up in your situation if we arent already and I am dreading it so much...If i were you I would want to try everything and anything to keep him with me... :( :(

Come on tonny! :(
 
Morning to you love and the adorable Ton :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
I hope the little man is eating all his treaties that you give him and his meds?
Lots and lots of cuddles and kisses from us to you both and Mike and the rest of the furbabies :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

Well, he's going to be reviewed in a week so fingers crossed.

I'm not giving up, but if he doesn't get any better than I don't want him to messed around with anymore. It's by any means not the easiest option to be made, but I have to think more o Ton's health and suffering and not for myself. :-\
 
Awww hun ((hugs)) you poor lovey, I really hope it doesnt come to that :(

Come on ton! Have a pig out on biccies! ;D :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

Aww Kelly, so sorry to read about Uncle Ton and him not being too well.

I know exactly how you feel, have had to let my chin go today and its been one of the hardest decisions to have to make. :'( :'( but I couldnt let him suffer any longer.

We all want them to pass peacefully in their sleep, but sometimes they need a little help. :'(

Thinking of you and Uncle Ton.

Hugs
