goodluck, hope she is ok, ali

Oh no she has worms, all tests came back fine except faeces she has worms, they are giving me a treatment to do at home not sure which one I have to phone with all their weights ( glad I only have three ) . Can we purchase panacur in the uk . Ali think I may grow pumpkins in the mean time I have grated carrot over everything .

hi Alicia im sorry your getting all these problems at least they have discovered the worms and treating them.if the carrot doesnt get a result i know a person who feeds butternut squash on occasion as a treat for her leopards , that can have a laxative effect and is in some supermarkets at the moment unlike pumpkin if your desperate.

butter nut squash is the same familly as pumpkin so will have the same effect. glad yougot a diagnosis, did nt the vet check for worms before?? seems a little unusual that they would do x rays, sedation for bloods and not do a fecal check first?
