Leo has been very unsettled since last night. He's constantly nibbling at his back end and scratching with the occasional scoot. He would not settle, then he's been up since 6am constantly doing the same......very agitated....
I called the vet as I was worried about anal gland abscesses and he said bring him down.
Anyway his left gland was empty but his right one was full. The vet emptied it and said I was right to bring him in before it became impacted and then an abscess could develop.
Im so glad I did because he's a new boy now. Hasn't scratched or nibbled once since we got back.
It pays to be aware of any abnormalities at all times and act as promptly as possible.
I told him Ive been using oatbran and he said keep at it as its obviously helping!!
