Is he not very well again? :( I'm not sure about the ratio but do ensure you have the right type of F10 before you do it.

Sorry to hear that, it does sound like biggles could do with an appointment for checks though unless this is an on going thing and you already know what's causing the breathing problems. Poor thing, I hope there is improvement soon.

I just feel sorry for him he is so happy talking he never shuts up which I love to hear him talk and whistle and play he plays boo with my grandson he's amazing bless. Last time we went to the vets they said there was nothing more they could do as to were the lump was and just to make him comfortable and loved which he is over loved he's my baby any problems phone them if any problems they said. I spoke to a different vet from somewhere else yesterday he said if I don't mind could he get in touch with my vet to get his records to have a look as I want second vet to see what they think I love him to bits and don’t want to lose him

Sorry I didn't realise it was related to that lump. I thought that was much improved, do you think it has got worse/bigger over the past few months to cause this then. I hope this second vet can help you, which one are you in touch with regarding getting a second opinion?

Hi Marie
He's a vet that looks after a local breeding farm
As for the lump I don't know if it's that lump that's got bigger as it means having him put to sleep so we can xray him. But if I do that I worry he won't wake up he's breathing is better now just sneezing every now and then so I don't know what to do as the vets already said there is nothing more they can do so I don't know what to do if pay for xray have I wasted the money that I could have used for the nebuliser just feel like I'm banging my head up the wall at the moment
