Picked her up last night during cleaning time and ready to come up for playtime and found her with a wet oozey 'girl bits' poor baby actually had blood oozing :...8...

I gave her small dose of baytril (in case i'm wrong) 0.25ml and some watered down light cranberry juice and then checked her later in night, no blood! This morning at 6.30 gave her probiotics and again no blood, but at 8.30am when i wanted to give her some baytril and another check.....BLOOD and oozing again :...

I'm seeing Brendan at 4.30pm today i'm guessing UTI but she's not squeeeeeked or grunted! I'm sure she hides pain even more than Onyx cause of her blindness :{

I'll update when i find out what's happening, please cross paws it is UTI as i can cure her of this!
I think i'll also start her on pearl barley (Patrick Juice) later today......
 
Awwww velvie bless you sweetheart, you get all the owies it seems! Hugs n piggy kisses from the boys. Hang in there glynis....maybe it's not as bAd this time round :)
 
Actually it was Onyx the last time......... she's nearly back to her 100% again due to some INCREDIBLE ADVICE from people on here and me being determined to get her back to her wheeky self again!

Velvet has had a few UTI's before tho :...

thanks i'll pass on your good wishes to her XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
 
OMG Glynis. Just got a few minutes to check the forum between appointments and was shocked to see this. Poor Velvet has really been through the wars with this. I hope to see good news tomorrow after she sees the vet this arvo.
 
Update - NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH !

Brendan manipulated her bladder to get another fresh sample and this THING plopped out into the dish :)>>>
He's pretty sure it's uterine tissue it's being sent off for pathology and i wont get the results till about Tuesday i think.
She had a cartophen injection, is on baytril 0.45ml twice daily and metacam too.

Can anyone advise what they think or have you seen this before?

:(:( oh Glynis...poor velvet

I don't have any experience with girls, so can't advise sorry.

Lots of love and healing vibes for you all xx
 
oh glynis, that looks horrific, I'm so sorry you are going through this, poor Velvet.

I have no advice of girls at all sorry.
 
My heart just heaved when it plopped out.........
I did ask Brendan does this mean 'warning bells' ? he said no at this stage but...... in other words lets see what the reports come back as.
I'm on the net now and can't seem to find anything similar grrr, so far i've been reading thru on uterine cancer :...
 
Oh poor little Velvet :( I hope whatever it turns out to be can be sorted easily, poor baby :( lots of cuddles from me x) :)
 
Oh no! I can just imagine the roller coaster ride your heart took! One thing I've learned is I the vet isn't overly concerned it is usually fixable. Out of curiosity is she spayed?
 
Oh no Glynis, so sorry to read this thread. Really hope your vet can find out whats going on with her. Loads of healing vibes to Velvet and huge hugs to you. That must have been such a shock to see. x x
 
Glynis, I'm so sorry about little Velvet - am sending her "feel better soon" thoughts, and hugs to you. I'll keep coming back for updates, although I understand you have to wait a while for the results.

i noticed that your vet used cartrophen at one stage for UTI that made me feel a little better!
 
i'm going to be logged in, i'll be checking to see if anyone can help :) and i'll pick up your pm soon i hope xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Whee have Dee's friends over tonight to watch the footy! so it's going to be rather busy, i'll be shutting the door to the girls room (aka workshop)
 
Oh Glynis - must be v worrying. Have you PMd those pics to Abi Nurse or Pebble or Suzy? Hope it becomes clearer so that you at least know what you are dealing with. Does look like quite 'fresh' tissue that has come away. Love to Velvet

Yes, Catrophen was used to help Putt's inflammed bladder. It may be worth getting an x-rayultrasound done also. Really hope she is ok x x
 
Just seen this Glynis, i am so sorry, them pics look awful, poor velvet and poor you!

I dont have anything helpful i can add, but i just wanted you to know i am thinking of you both and wanted to send wheeking healing loving vibes xxxxx
 
HUGS

I am so sorry; it looks rather like interstitial cystitis now. :(

You may want to treat rather for inflammation than bacterial infection. But it looks like you have caught it very early on, caring mummy that you are! If you give antibiotics, you will need to use fairly high doses.

Pearl barley is certainly an option.
