Hi,

I just wanted some advice really, or to hear any of your stories please.

We noticed a few weeks ago that Bod, our 21 month old Siamese had started to drink rather alot. As he was still eating and behaving normally, we decided to just keep an eye on him before panicking and taking him to the vets un-necessarily.

Well, my husband and I went away for a long weekend, just got back yesterday, and the lady at the cattery said we should take him to the vets, as he was now drinking 3 big bowls of water a day. So we took him straight away, as it suddenly seemed to have got much worse.

The vet weighed him, listened to his heart / chest - all the usual stuff and said he seemed in perfect health. She explained all the possible problems that it could be - kidney failure, thyroid, or psychological.

So now we have to try and collect a wee sample, which should be fun! I was just wondering if anyone else had seen anything like this? Like I said, he's in perfect health, not even 2 years old, but is just drinking all the time!

Any comments would be most gratefully appreciated. I'm very worried about my special boy

Thanks,

Jeanette.
