I?m starting to worry about my JR. He?s had 3 overnight wee accidents in the last couple of weeks. I had originally put this down to a change of food? we recently changed to Butchers tripe mix, the other food he was eating is going out of production, plus we need to keep our costs down and actually this is one food he will eat as he?s a fussy bugger. I know Butchers has a high moisture content hence putting the accidents down to the food. He?s pooh-ing more too, so just figured there?s more ?waste? with this food ifswim.
He?s not drinking anymore than normal. He rarely visits his water bowl in fact.
However, last night we took him out for a wee at 11.30pm. This morning I heard him get up early and mooch about, but didn?t actually get up myself until 6.30am by which time he?d had a wee on the floor. He seems to be weeing quite large volumes.
He?s 3 years old, not neutered but booked in to have the op on Friday. I?m going to call the vet tomorrow for advice (they?re closed today), but does anyone have any advice in the meantime? I?m now worrying about all sorts, cushings disease, diabetes, kidney / bladder problems etc?. Does anyone have any experience of these and how early symptoms presented themselves?
