Lovely flowers, Swampy. Guess the cats think so too! Grin

Oh I’m so happy that he’s coming home and can be seen quickly for his scan 💕 can’t imagine what you are going through 😢

I honestly thought they wouldn’t get them there. Rookie error obviously.

I generally ask people not to buy me flowers just because I worry about the idiot cats eating them or knocking them over but these were my leaving work flowers 🙂

Did you send the salmon oil in with him?.

QueenOllie · 28/09/2020 11:46

I didn't. That might be why he's a) fuming and b) refusing to eat...

Fluffycloudland77 · 28/09/2020 12:29

God is in the detail. Worst hotel ever, no salmon oil and needles.

Supersimkin2 · 28/09/2020 12:33

Yay! @QueenOllie.

Matt is adorable @Papergirl1968. I suspect you have been forgiven for the unmentionable household addition.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 28/09/2020 12:45

I know I shouldn't say this, but I am kind of wondering what will happen when DD1 rescues a miniature pony ... :)

Fluffycloudland77 · 28/09/2020 12:55

Miniature stable obvs.

QueenOllie · 28/09/2020 14:51

Slight change of plan, he's staying overnight. He's now eaten dry food Hmm wet food and is purring his head off at one of the staff

YetAnotherSpartacus · 28/09/2020 14:57

I think that’s a good plan! He’s obviously figured out how to manipulate his captors too.

QueenOllie · 28/09/2020 15:00

She said he was chatting away and gumming dry biscuits

Me "er. Dry food?! What have you drugged him with?!"

Papergirl1968 · 28/09/2020 15:28

Can he come home tomorrow after the scan?

Supersimkin2 · 28/09/2020 15:43

Well done darling Ollie and @QueenOllie.

@YetAnotherSpartacus, Matt would learn to ride miniature pony, wouldn't he @Papergirl1968.

QueenOllie · 28/09/2020 15:47

@Papergirl1968 yes hopefully!

Papergirl1968 · 28/09/2020 15:50

Fingers crossed, Queen. 🤞🏼
Yes, Lana, I can see Matt galloping round the garden. Grin

coastergirl · 28/09/2020 20:08

What happened to the rest of Ollie's teeth Queen? Your fb post about the dry food made me laugh. Hope tomorrow is a good day with good scan news and getting him home. 🤞

QueenOllie · 28/09/2020 20:36

@coastergirl he lost a few and had the rest removed so he's only got one lower fang left Grin

coastergirl · 28/09/2020 21:01

Bless him. He's adorable. Is he an older gentleman? Sorry for all the questions. I now have a cat on either side of me, so clearly they've come for an update on Ollie's welfare.

QueenOllie · 28/09/2020 21:04

Not entirely sure but he's about 11 we think from working out the years he spent living in a greenhouse

nettie434 · 28/09/2020 22:41

Oh that is good news about Ollie - hope you have a restful night QueenOllie so you are ready to provide Ollie with the level of service he 'requires' tomorrow

YetAnotherSpartacus · 29/09/2020 13:19

I've been too scared to ask, but how is our darling Ollie?

QueenOllie · 29/09/2020 13:20

Ollie coming home for 24hrs tonight with his cannula in for meds and back tomorrow night at the vet
Q triaditis, q inflammatory bowel disease, the gold standard is he needs a few biopsies taken to check exactly what is going on. His gut walls are slightly thickened too, and everything is a bit inflamed
He’s eaten and is bright and happy so we will go from there and he can have the biopsies done

YetAnotherSpartacus · 29/09/2020 13:31

So surgery then?

That all sounds better than it could be?

Hoping for the best Flowers

QueenOllie · 29/09/2020 13:33

Going to see how he goes and likely have the biopsies done but that's the 3k limit so I need to check whether best to have it or have some wiggle room for actual treatment costs
They're happy enough that it's likely not lymphoma and he's eaten as well
