Thread: Poor Monty... peeing probs / cystitis

I also got a tip from the vet’s assistant to get them to drink more. Defrost some frozen fish or prawns in the drinking bowl. Which I am doing right now. As soon as the temperature is right I’ll put that bowl out (with the prawns still in it, of course).

BTW, how is your cold? Better, I hope.

Just make sure they drink more...

I have lost in the past 4 stud boys, to this, you have to be sooo careful.
