Hey everyone,
I've had a male mali for about 7 years now; he has always been a bit plump, but as of recently (the last couple of months) he has gotten extremely FAT! His diet and routine has not changed. I have also observed some labored breathing.
Has anyone something to say about this??
Thanx!
So hard to really guess from that information... Have you made sure there is no obstruction? is he defecating normally? Is it possible the heat has dropped or humidity increased and the Uro has gotten a respiratory infection? If there is labored breathing involved I think I would be very tempted to take a visit to the vet. A picture and some details might help us.
Keep us posted and good luck!
Elizabeth
