![]() He was very small; and was actually suffering from Giardia, though we didn't know it at the time. He slept: ![]() and he ate: ![]() and he loved his playmate, Miss Sophie, a Savannah, very much: ![]() Bit by bit, Anakin grew, but more slowly than Miss Sophie. But he always had the energy to play: ![]() ![]() Heartbreakingly, Miss Sophie died, 3 months old, for reasons no one can really explain. The vet thinks it was a heart problem. Either way, Anakin was suddenly without his friend and not putting on weight. ![]() But then we cracked it. We found giardia, and began to treat him. Immediately the weight began to pile on, and Anakin grew from a massively underweight cat at 3 month to a healthy, larger, cat at 6 months... ![]() ![]() ![]() relaxed and happy with my kids... ![]() ![]() One week ago, we brought him a new friend - a 13 week old bengal kitten, called Sandy. They're already getting...but so strange to see him as the big cat now: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Re: The story of Anakin, my 6 month Russian Blue
Thank you!
It's ok, I didn't know what giardia was until we diagnosed it. Giardia is a parasite, that's not always easy to pick up, but leads to diarrhea and limited nutrition absorbtion. It's treatable with metronidazole or panacur, but it has a habit of coming back... |
