: I just wanted to let you know~ The vet said he didn't make it though the night~ He did an autopsy to see what he could find and it was parasites. Hook worms....He said his prediction was parasitic phenomnia~ And said they punctured his lung and he was hemoraging...I am still in shock~ I am at work and already cried my eyes out in the bathroom~ I can't believe it was parasites...
: I could have prevented this by having a fecal done right after i got him!!!!! ~ So basically I am just kicking myself and feeling horrible that I didn't listen to people on this site about the urgency of getting a fecal done~ I spoke to the vet about my other two Iggys and I am dropping there fecal off on the way to the airport tomorow~ I still can't believe he is really gone.....I remmeber reading that they lived to be 15 to maybe 20 years old if well cared for..I always thought that was not nearly long enough....now to lose him so young...
