Understandably they did not have this sort of money and were in a very distressed state when calling us.<\/p>\n<p>We asked the Veterinary Practice to transfer &#8216;Roo&#8217;s notes so far to our Charity. This was done and the investigations then continued. At this stage, we started a Facebook Fund Raiser.<\/p>\n<p>There was something blocking his intestine, it was the impaction of faeces, but was there a foreign body there as well? He received the treatment to clear the faeces and he went home on Thursday evening 20th April.<\/p>\n<p>Friday was a very long day. Trying to encourage him to eat and encouraging him to relax and settle. He began to get progressively worse so at midnight had to be re-admitted.<\/p>\n<p>More X-rays and a scan were showing an obstruction so pain relief and IV fluids were carried out before having major surgery. There was a foreign body in the colon that was causing the blockage. He had swallowed a plastic top which was causing all the problems, similar to a small button.<\/p>\n<p>He went home this morning to his family (23rd April) and is now doing well, although there will need to be a lot of healing before he is back to his normal self.<\/p>\n<p>The estimate we have been given for all of &#8216;Roo&#8217;s&#8217; treatment, investigations, and surgery, is \u00a32,200 and we are trying very hard to raise this amount.<\/p>\n<p>If you feel you can help us by perhaps making a donation, however small, to either our <a href=\"https:\/\/felinewelfareiow.co.uk\/?page_id=121\">PayPal account<\/a> or on our <a href=\"https:\/\/m.facebook.com\/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid024WbWMb1tfxhRj74G3m2bzoDuncHWCtn6VB6SFYfvfwGR19iQcnM1AjeQwMjrReBLl&amp;id=100001924779177\">Facebook Fund Raiser<\/a> that would be AMAZING and VERY greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n<p>We are so relieved &#8216;Roo&#8217;
