He isnt taking any other medication , just the omeprazole but the black poo started well before he started taking omeprazole so it cant be that xx

He has been unsettled today , possibly tummy ache and he is rather ( for him ) quiet . His usual demeaner is a happy go lucky soft silly boy . I started his special diet today , thankfully he loves cottage cheese and eggs so no protests xx

Sadly we are faced with pure black poo again this evening , I am so disappointed , totally gutted for our boy xx

Thank you dear friends for your well wishes for my boy . His poo this morning was a mix of brown and black but Sue still wants him to have the faecal test as this happened a couple of months ago, cleared and then came back . I am concerned because on his last mast cell tumour removal surgery ...

It is a rule set by the Lab that does the analysis , maybe they have some link between red meat and blood in poo , Reuben doesnt have any liver or offal of any type x

Sue has just called me , I have to put Reuben onto a red meat free diet for five days and then collect a faecal sample . He can have rice , potato ( they make him sick ) white fish, boiled chicken, cottage cheese and eggs or I can buy a prepared food from the Vets which is tempting really . She...

Anna`s van has broken down so no playgroup this week but I would not have sent him anyway as I dont want him to put any stress on his tummy by charging around and he would do because they behave as they think they should do , regardless of how poorly they are xx

Thank you for asking xx Unfortunately, the black poo continues but he has only had two days of omeprazole so I must keep hopeful . In himself , well , he isnt right, nothing I can put my finger on but he is very clingy and for him , quiet , its a worry xx

Just home after Reuben had a very lengthy examination . I had taken a photo of the black poo which he had a few months ago when I gave him omeprazole and it cleared . Sue agrees with me that it is most likely an ulcer which is caused by the mast cell cancer . I am to give him two 20mg omeprazole...

I am a little worried , he did a black poo this morning after doing a normal one yesterday afternoon . I know that mast cell cancer can cause gastro issues , often an ulcer so its best to get him check out with Sue xx

Wonderful photos @Emily xx

A lovely man in our village advertised plants for sale so we visited this morning . I bought some Alicante tomato plants for the greenhouse , he gave me two cherry tomato plants for free . He then asked if I wanted any flowers and kindly gave me a whole try of marigolds for free ! I also bought...

Really pleased Hugo is doing so well now xxx

So pleased to read this update xx

He is so beautiful , what a very kissable face xx

It is a tough decision for sure , one that only us can make after weighing up all the Pros and Cons , its a case of doing what is right based on information we have gleaned . I had Reuben castrated aged 2 and a half , and honestly, for him it was the best thing I could have done for our lad ...
