yesterday i had to take frida to the vet again. one og her anal glands was very big and tender, no abcsess, though.
usually i empty the anal glands if i find them very full, but with this one i could do nothing. it was so swollen and frida protested at having me thouch it so i thought an abscess might be forming.
the vet said that the secretion was very hard, very dry, and so vey difficult to squeeze out. she is sure that this gland can't be emtied in the usual manner.
does anybody have advice for me, if there is anything i can do/feed frida, to make this secretion more fluid?
i have not encountered this problem before, have no idea if anything can be done.
