Thanks. The test results showed an infection which he has now been treated for and is a lot better. He has stopped drinking so much and his poop is back to normal. Unfortunately the eye discharge and lack of eating continues. The vet has arranged further tests to look specifically for dental...

I asked if there was anything I could get from them to help him poop, they said no. It's 9 and a half hours until my vet opens and even then I live an hours drive away. Is...
