Hi all
Wondered if anyone could shed some light as an stumped.
For the past three days Winston has barely touched any food and does not seem himself. I put it down to the hot weather or possibly the recent change in his diet. However in an effort to get him to eat i gave him some mince (literally his favourite food). Yet he barely touched it.
He has been a bit withdrawn and keeping himself to himself. Although has still enjoyed his daily walk.
I took him to the vet yesterday, who checked his temp. Slighlty raised but expected given the hot weather. He is hydrated and he had his anal glands bled slightly. She was stumped as he has not been sick. Although he did poo and wee in the house the other night which is very unlike him. Was advised to take him home and if over a few days he does not resume eating to take him back.
I have also noticed that he seems to have an itchy bum or something. As he almost seems to be spinning round trying to get his head to it. To relieve irritation? I have had a look but cannot see anything obvious in that area.
I am starting to get concerned as this really isnt like him and he must be starving. Does anyone have an idea of what may be wrong?
Many thanks and kind regards
