Hi I am having a problem with whinger, she is going back to the vets tomorrow for check up following recent illness, the problem is I cannot get her to eat, I have offered her tuna, chicken, whiskas, felix and there is always dry food availible, she is bright in her self and is still on her medication, she cries for food when I put it down to her she sniffs and walks away. Her gums are know nice and pink so the antibiotics have done their job, the only thing she will lap up and that is just a desert spoonfull is porrage, HELP

Hello again west ham fan. Have a look at this recent thread for some tips.

The vet can give her some pills or an injection to boost her appetite. I am sure you will get some good advice tomorrow from the vet.

Keep us posted. I am sure all will be OK with Whinger (I love her name by the way!)

Take Care xx

Oh, I am so sorry to hear that Whinger is not eating.
It must be such a worry for you at the moment.
Obviously, you must see a Vet but I can only ask you again to contact the CPL. They normally recommend a Vet that they use and will help you with the Vet fees.
You are running up a lot of Vet fees that you cannot afford.
Please keep us updated.
Sorry I can't be more help. x

Hi well we visited the vets, followwing a physical she said that whinger appeared to be bright in her self and needed aboost, she gave her a steroid injection and 2 PERIACTIN Tabs, Imust give1/4 tablet twice a day this will or should improve her appetite. I also received some good news the local CPL, are going to help with the fees. Whinger was given that name because when she was found all she did was whinge I only had to move 1 foot and she would be off, mind that is how I know she is better when she was ill she was so quiet and it was horrible. Thankyou all again for your kindness

Thank you so much for letter us know. I am so pleased the the vet has given her the booster pills to improve dear Whinger's appetite, and also delighted that the CPL is giving you some help.

Whinger certainly has nothing to whinge about the care you are giving her!

Best wishes
