Blood test results came late last night, they showed Tello was anaemic, he also had very low white blood cell count. Vet said that the results essentially showed that he could never have survived. They don't know what caused it but suspect he was very ill for a long time, although he did not...

Hi @JoesMum @Kasia I am so so sad to say that my little baby has died. The vet called and said he became totally unresponsive and his heart was very slow and irregular. I gave permission to stop his suffering. I just wanna crawl into a whole in die but I have a conference call with a client...

Just an update - vet called, he said not much change. no better, no worse. Said sometimes his eyes are open but he's still not really moving, they tried to tempt him with delicious treats. He opened his mouth when he spied a strawberry but then didn't make the effort to actually eat some...

Hi guys, Thanks for updating here yesterday @JoesMum. We are still waiting on bloods. Not spoken to vet yet today, yesterday evening he said Tello is much the same although seems perkier in his baths but when placed back in his nursing area he does not move and is very unresponsive still. They...

That is encouraging to know, that there is some hope for Tello even if there is some kind of organ issue.

Aw thanks Kasia. I guess we will have to see what blood test shows. What was wrong with your Rufin?

Hi Kasia, you have more hope than I do. Vet nurse sounded very gloomy about his chances. I didn't sleep much last night. I will call vet after 11am this morning and see how he is. I just don't understand why I felt he got worse after 3rd abx injection and this is why I'm worried about something...

I've just spoken to vets again, he has not opened his eyes all day. They are calling Trinity for further advice and we may have to take him there, I am just trying to work out how as I don't have a car at the moment. They are suspecting organ failure and said he is very weak. I'm devastated...

I just don't know what to think.

Vet has called today and it's not good. He has still not improved. He is being bathed, fed by tube and given fluids. We are waiting on bloods to rule out kidney failure. :( He's had his 4th antibiotic injection today, vet said he would've expected to see some signs of progress by now so we are...

Thinking about my little guy and hoping he's ok :( keep walking past his table and hoping he comes home to it

Thanks both, really appreciate it. Sat here thinking 'will they have right set up ' etc etc but I know this vets is one of a few in London that , although not as expert as Trinity, does specialise in exotics and they have 2 torts in at the moment who are recovering from post hibernation ills so...

Hahah! Joe sounds like a little loon :) Tello has had an eventful life, a few years ago he was stolen from our flat. I thought I'd never see him again, but I went round all local vets and gave them posters and put them up in the neighbourhood. Policeman during the crime report even took a photo...

Hi guys, just got back from the vets. They've kept Tello in. Vet said his eyes definitely have some discharge but his muscle tone is good and he has put on some weight from last week. Next steps are bloods and x-ray and that at this stage it could be anything. He then scared me talking about...

Not doing good today. Vets at 3. I'm so worried, dont want to lose him :(
