sorry I have not logged on since I posted this. I was a little upset at the time... still am. I am going allow the vet to run some tests on him to make certian it is a Liver Shunt. But sadly thats all I can afford currently. I will need to start saving up and raising some money to get his surgery done. I mean they are pretty certian it is the problem. He has very greasy fur, and I clean it and it quickly becomes greasy. I guess that is liver related? I have also read other liver shunt stories... I am pretty certian but the tests will tell for sure.

I will start reading all your posts now. I would love to be recomended to any vets in WA state. I will consider tarveling but I don't want to put such a small baby through such a long trip. Thank you for all your support and blessings.
