Thread: Do Coonies suffer in the heat?

My most hungriest {always on a diet fed seperate from the others...} boy seems to not want so much food when the weather suddenly changes,proof this morning with half his supper still in bowl & the rest not believing their eyes that Merl had left something for them to clear up. They are all more quieter as well again due to the sudden having to cope with warmer weather,I would normally allow a good 24 hours before rushing to the vets as long as she is drinking & hasn't been vomiting or have violent diarrhoea. I think its hard when they are "newbies" to know what is the norm for them but luckily over the years you seem to be able to pick up quite quickly if it is just an off day or panic needs to set in. Good luck hopefully this AM all is ok...x

I too have noticed more food left in the bowl , normally have to top up in the morning and wasnt needed, also less activity going on. guess with all that fur its a touch warm for the poor babes.

Poor baby she had a temp of 104 so back on the antibiotics, the calici flared up again. It is probably the new girls that have brought it on. But she is looking a lot brighter today.
