He has to go back tomorrow though all day again to be hooked up to the IV so they have left the catheter in his arm. He really hasn't eaten anything since possibly Friday night or Saturday morning. The vet does not want us to give him anything either, due to the vomiting. Jake of course probrably wouldn't eat or drink anything anyway but how long can they go without food? The Vet did load him up with fluids for the night, a bolus? I don't know, I'm still so concerned... |
they can go without food for 5-7 days and if vomitting let tummy rest and slowly introduce food boiled chick and rice as it is bland. water is the most important thing they have to drink more critical than food
