Strange

Well Vinnie was very unsettled last nite and didn't eat his breakfast, nor his tea. He has been arching his back and is very tense in his tummy area. Took him for his usual walk at 6pm which he kept lying down with his head on his paws so cut short the walk and came back home. He now keeps trying to get on my lap and burying his head in me. He had normal poos except for one at teatime which had grass in it and a little mucas. His nose is cold and is now just curled up beside me fast asleep. Do you think he may just have a funny tum and perhaps in a bit of pain?

An arched back generally indicates stomach pain or discomfort. If he's off his food as well, it's probably either a bug or something he's eaten. Has he had any new food recently?

It could just be an upset tummy.

Keep an eye on him, it's probably just an upset tum, but it doesn't hurt to be aware.

You'll probably find he's back to normal tomorrow!

No new food Eleanor, He has just had a bit of wind and it does smell rank so guess keep him off food now until its out of his system? Thanks hun Xx

Thanks Caryll I will certainly keep a close eye on him. He seems to be in more comfort now so maybe its wearing off a little.

hope Vinnie has passed the worst of it and is feeling better very soon

Hope he's feeling better soon Inez

Thanks all I do panic its just not like him to want to get on my lap so know he isn't right.

Poor vinnie, hope he feels better in the morning, sure he will, hugs from me and Daisy x

He's probably feeling a bit sorry for himself, poor thing. I think it's a good idea to put him on light meals until it passes - give his digestive system a rest.

Yeh will do Eleanor, though stepson cut the grass today and there were loads of clumps on the lawn whether he has eaten some of it I don't know. I always watch him but I wasn't here and the stepson is as much use as a chocolate fireguard!

It's possible then. I'd just keep an eye on him for a while to see if he gets better

Aww I hope vin is feeling well again soon inez
