Norman came to us from one of our supporters who could not take him into her house as he beat every body up including the other pets !
We managed to stabilise his diabetes but unfortunately this only lasted for a little while and the problem became very erratic. He was down at the vets more than at the sanctuary..
A suggestion by at the CLAWS sent Beverley to the Ralph Veterinary Hospital in Marlow staffed by caring vets doing their best for the animals Norman was allocated his own vet who suggested that he should have an operation that would sort out the diabetes. It was long, complex expensive but if successful would mean he would not need insulin any longer.
The Ralph cannot do it so we had to take Norman to the Royal Veterinary College way up the M25 get it done. The operation was a complete success. Now he does not need any injections just two medications a day. He goes back to the Ralph every six months for a check up and that is all.
A wonderful outcome for a lad from the streets. We often wonder what he would be like if we had not taken him in.
