Bruce update
Hi Guys
As of tonight Bruce is in Stafford Animal Hospital as his Antibiotics failed to make him better.
They did help him with his temp but he went right off his food and was finding it hard to lift his head.
He has had his bloods done and they have come back with a high white cell count, this meaning he is fighting infection.
Tomorrow he will be having and exray and they may do a spinal tap to see what kind of Meningitis he might have so they know how to responde with treatment. It broke my heart leaving my little man in that cage but i know he is in safe hands now and is in the best possible place. Just want my little dude home not much sleep tonight me thinks.
Cheers for all the messages of support guys its really appreciated.

Re: Bruce update
You must be frantic, but at least he seems to be responding to treatment. Hang in there & let us know how he gets on! ><

Re: Bruce update
I'm sure Bruce will be very excited and pleased to see you.
Do you have something with your scent on that you could take in to help comfort him, something like an old jumper for example to put on his bedding there.

Re: Bruce update
Sending all best vibes to you and Bruce ><
If he still has to stay in hospital, then Kathy's suggestion of one of your smelly old jumpers to comfort him is an excellant one.
Get well soon Bruce - looking forward to some good news ><
