Thread: Vet visit

Thanks for all your posts !

Jckkerrison - definately mum lol ;)

Karena, is Simbas hernia an umbilical hernia, only our vet said that he wouldn't have recommended it unless he was going under with the neutering, so maybe if that's the case it may not be necessary as Simba has already been neutered. Apparently it's quite common but again it's all new to me and he left it to us to say whether or not to do it.

Yes it is an umbilical hernia so hopefully he won't need anything doing to it. Our vet said I just had to keep an eye on it and if it got bigger they may need to think about closing it - but hopefully it won't. I do feel it every time I pick him up though.

Sounds exactly the same as Harry's, we could feel his too, but it never seemed to bother him when we picked him up, I think we worried about it more. I am sure the vet will advise you, but lets hope it's all ok.

good to see harry was a good boy....

and yes mum has every right to be proud!!!!
