Tabs Is Hospitalised 5th Oct 2013, by AnimalCare
I was duly shocked this morning when we arrived at the (4th) vet. I had already emailed him the X-Rays and all the details. This vet does not think it is hairball at all.
Tabs’ temperature was taken and it was very high – 41.24 degrees. That’s very, very high, indicative of some infection. So an ear-prick blood sample was taken and it showed the presence of “band cells”.

These are immature white blood cells produced by the bod...

Subsidy Payouts – Please Wait Until Monday 5th Oct 2013, by AnimalCare
I have not had the time to collect the claim forms yesterday as by the time we reached home after the Vegfest event, it was already 8pm. It looks like I will only be able to collect your application forms on Monday (if I cannot make it today). Please don’t worry about the deadline as we know when the forms arrived at the postbox.
Please wait until Monday for the subsidy payouts. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Thank you.

The 41st IVU World Vegfest – Day One 5th Oct 2013, by AnimalCare
It was just Connie and me manning the booth yesterday. The crowd wasn’t so big, so it was manageable. Also, it was a very different crowd – vegetarians and vegans, and there were food stalls and vegan stalls which was the main attraction.
There were foreigners too.
And even though I was worried sick about Tabs and making phonecalls home to check (my husband was looking after her) and phonecalls to numerous vets to ask for possible diagnoses, the show has to go on for AnimalCar...

Taking Tabs To See A 4th Vet Today 5th Oct 2013, by AnimalCare
Thank you, everyone, for your suggestions and concern.
It is 5am now and there is still no defecation from Tabs.
I gave the pumpkin last night. It did not work.
I also consulted the 2nd vet who did the X-Ray again and he said that though there is faecal matter in her intestines, she was not constipated yet, so it did not warrant an enema. He said to give it about 3 more days, and if there is no improvement, Tabs may have to be put on drips. He also suggested an esophagal feeding tube (inserted t...

Tabs Needs A 3rd Opinion 4th Oct 2013, by AnimalCare
Thank you, everyone, for your advice, suggestions and concern for Tabs.
We still have to force-feed her but she eats the food willingly. She is alert; just not as active. But there is still no defecation.
Based on the X-Ray, another vet seems to think it may not be hairball but something more complicated which may require surgery.
We will be taking her for a 3rd opinion tomorrow.
Praying for the best.

Groovy 4th Oct 2013, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
When one of our Indian star tortoises, Groovy, was radiographed, it was revealed that she had 7 eggs including a hyper-calcified egg bound.
Thanks to hormone treatment and special care from the team at AWRC, Groovy has now laid all but 2 of the eggs.
We are also happy to report that she started eating again at the end of last month and is doing really well!! :)
