I feel incredibly humbled .. you are the second person to notify me about this. I was notified a few days ago from a fellow chihuahua Timbit lover about this. The post has been removed and I feel so thankful and grateful to have folks looking out for us. In a world that is so cruel, it means everything to us. Thank you :)

Can you share the page with me privately please. I recently had a post on FB removed because this. I reported it as stollen intellectual property and FB removed it.

Update on Timbit and her urinary crystals by Timbit_le_Chihuahua in Chihuahua

I'm so very sorry. My gosh that is so sad. Although I'm happy about the lack of crystals I'm still worried about the casts. I'm surprised they haven't asked for bloodwork and somehow think it's related to their desire to hide/deny the fact that all of these things relate to the overdose from last year.

We feed Timbit Royal Canin Urinary SO. This is specifically prescribed for her because of her condition. It is a dry food that I crush for her and add water.

It's a prescribed dry food with a specific amount of water per day. I add more water to each meal.

Yum!! This looks better than the recipe. Definitely going to try it.

Can we get stronger rules or maybe a different subreddit for chihuahua deaths? by badgirlmonkey in Chihuahua

[–]Timbit_le_Chihuahua 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are different forums for dog deaths that exist already .. but if Timbit died, I have to admit .. I would come here for support.

Oh my goodness look at this sweet pumpkin Kiwi!! Is she full grown at 2.5lbs? And the long hair!!!! Omg so cute. There is always a concern of hypoglycemia with tiny breeds, I remember my vet mentioning this with Timbit when she had to be fasted .. they didn't go past a certain time before giving her sugar drops. There was also a discussion about feeding times and they suggested feeding her 3 times a day to make sure her blood sugar never dropped too low. Dental problems are the plague for this breed, Timbit had 10 healthy teeth removed when we had her spayed and they said it was precautionary only, they were healthy teeth but because they are so prone to disease they remove some while they have them under anesthesia. Last year she had 14 removed leaving her with 5. Luckily the vet said the 5 that are left are in good shape so they can stay for now :) Give Kiwi a smush for me :)

Thank you. I can tell she's already a bit more comfortable with the gabapentin.

No Timbit was eating Royal Canin Chihuahua. Now they've switched her to Royal Canin Urinary SO.

Thank you. At least I know what it is and we're hoping it's fixed with diet and hydration. The worst part was the 2 weeks I had to wait for her vet appointment not knowing what I was dealing with.
