my little poppet has been quiet for a couple of days

had an exploratory myself today as she felt swollen - thought she was egg bound

couldn't feel any egg but she was very hot - been to vets and we both agree it looks like egg peritonitis 

going to try antibios and anti inflams but not an easy thing to beat - at least if she doesn't make it her last days will be sunny and warm

going to say a little prayer tonight

Poor little girl.

How is she today?

How is she today?

hi - she has been on anti bios for a couple of days and she is showing signs of a slight improvement , she feels less hot internally and is eating & drinking by her self

but she is not her usual bubbly self yet so I am hopeful that when we have completed the course of anti bios she maybe more comfortable - but I am aware egg peritonitis is a hard one to beat 

but I am keeping positive for now

daft how attached we get to them isn't it

Saying prayers in France too.
Hoping she will be OK.

I'm afraid she didn't make it 

as I expected she went down hill 

today she wouldn't eat and just wanted to lay under the bush with her eyes closed 

so we did the right thing and ended her suffering this afternoon by asking the vet to put her to sleep 

said I wouldn't cry ( but I did  ) cheerio my little poppet xxx

Sorry to hear that barley, you did your best for her 

[brookieme]

Ahhhhh so sad. I am sure she will have had a much better life with you looking after her.
Bye bye Poppet. x

Ever so sorry to hear about little Poppet. I had one go the same way a couple of years ago and yes I cried too.

You did all you could have done for her, that's the important thing.

[Mum2mj]

Sorry to hear that

Always sad when a pet dies & nothing wrong with shedding a tear. Just goes to show how much you cared & took your responsibilities as an owner seriously. (((Hugs)))
