Tyke is doing AMAZINGLY.
Yesterday I came in with my boyfriend and he was at the door barking while opening it. His tail was wagging and his ears were perked.
We give him a teaspoon of the I/D food every few hours mixed with water to make it soupy. Yesterday he ate four seperate times (four teapspoons total) and didn't throw up ONCE! He still isn't drinking as much but because he eats the food and licks the bowl, he gets all the water we put in with that.
My boyfriend and I were eating the left overs from The Cheesecake Factory (yum!) we had gone to for lunch for Valentine's Day and for the first time in days Tyke was begging and whining for a bite. Obviously we were unable to give him anything at all but that was definately music to my ears
As far as him eating that stuff on Wednedsay...I had him rushed in to the vet on Tuesday after he had thrown up the night before and all that day and had diarrhea. He hadn't been diagnosed with Pancreatitis at that point but had had blood drawn. She told me to not feed him that night, but to start the next day. My mom gave him a tiny bit the next day and he kept it down...then we got the blood test results confirming the pancreatitis.
After that was when all food had been withheld. He then went the rest of Wednesday, then Thursday and Friday with no food. They told us we could give him some broth on Friday and he slurped that up (he was doing somewhat better on Friday) and then Saturday he had a little bit before his last hospitalization.
My mom took him in yesterday, expecting him to need rehydrated...only to find out he WASN'T dehydrated!
He looks like he's not sick right now the way he's acting. He's acting normal. He is understandably tired, and he has a rather...distinct smell...from being so sick these last few days (we're going to give him a bath as soon as he's stronger) but otherwise he appears to be completely normal!
My family has never EVER seen him so sick and we were the closest we had ever been to actually believing we could lose him. It was days of crying and not sleeping and worrying yourself nauseas. But now, I think we can finally relax!
I will post a photo of my almost-healthy lil guy here later!
