Ludo was acting very weird last week so I took him to the emergency vet & he had to stay the night to be monitored and get lots of tests. Originally they figured he had just eaten something that was toxic and he would be fine, but yesterday the vet called me with his test results and he does have a liver shunt.

I was referred to a specialist and will be making him an appointment as soon as possible, but I really have no idea what to expect :/

Is this treatable? What should I expect? Is there anything I can do to make it easier on Ludo?
