Re: Kylie 11/7/16
Dear Mark I am so terribly sorry to hear this. As Helen says it must feel like the end of an era. You did all you possibly could for Kylie. And she couldn't have had a happier home or have been more loved!! She touched many hearts on here and was a part of the family. We will all miss her. Sleep tig...

Re: BARNEY BACK IN HOSPITAL TONIGHT !!!!
I'm so pleased he's pulled through the op. He will feel much better for it. As you say he is a toughie and he's fighting all he can to be with you as long as possible. He is such a sweet natured boy. It will be a long night for you but let's hope you can bring him home tomorrow where he belongs. Xxxx

That's good about the wet food. Sorry for assuming that Tyson was on dried food. Years ago Iams used to only do dried food.
How is Tyson's appetite? Is he eating a lot but not putting weight on or is he not that interested in food at the moment?
