Kukurika made it through the tests OK and is still eating well and putting on
weight. However her neck problem hasnt responded to any treatment and my
vet couldnt spot anything abnormal in the x-rays or the blood tests. We
decided to go for a referral to the vets at Twycross zoo. It will be several
days before they can give their verdict.
It was useful to know that while Kuku was out the vet was able to manipulate
her neck through its full range of movement.
Go to the medical section of the site to see the x-rays.
The blood
results were more or less normal too – I was relieved to know
that Kuku is getting what she needs from her food despite her dodgy
digestion.
