The vet has said it is not a stone as not dense enough but more than likely to be a growth/tumour of sorts but without getting biopsies he would not like to say.
MBD has shocked me too, as you've said Emma, every bit of sunshine there is he's out and summertime 24 7. He has nutrobol, calcium new lamps every 6 months.
Interestingly the vet said to change the bulbs every 3 months and he's given me the name of some other vitamin D3 and Calcium supplement to use. Advising me to use with Twiglet too as he suspects, though has not seen Twig let, has it too as I keep them identically.
I'm gutted at this as I thought the husbandry I was giving was OK - I've failed.
Tetleys mass, what can I say. I look at him and see no difference apart from the very slight drag of his foot.
The vet said sometimes you do all the procedures to find what's wrong only to wish you hadn't found out what it is.
Do I want to put him through procedures, I don't know.
Do I want him to suffer, no.
Do I want him to be happy, yes.
Hes only 15,, I've had him 10 years and he's my friend
