Tigger came to us at just 8 months old. He had grabbed the child next door so his owners were now worried. They stated that this was new behaviour. Even so, they hadn't explained to us the full extent of his reactivity. It was worrying to see one so young behaving this way.
However, he had been treated with Nexgard flea treatment which is known to cause neurological damage. With careful handling, Tigger did make improvements and we were hopeful for his future.
We lost that hope today when he suffered a seizure that he didn't recover from and the vets advised us to give him peace in sleep. Tigger lived for just 11 months and died as another preventable victim of Nexgard.
If you are unaware of the dangers of Nexgard then you can learn more in this article:
