We're back from the vet's office. She did blood work and said his blood was fine, they also did a stool sample which came back fine also. She has put him on Amoxicillin 2 X a day and I am to "force feed" him every morning and night then give his meds. She gave me high protein canned foods to give him too. She advised that he was not absorbing enough protein when he ate although I have offered him EVERYTHING I can think of to make him eat!! She said to return in one week and if this doesn't make him bounce back then our next step is to go to the University of Tennessee (in Knoxville 3 and a half to 4 hours away) and that they can do tests there to check and see if it is either an enlarged kidney/heart or if they are too small and also to tell if a shunt would be possible or improbable. And I have to keep a diary on him for the next week to let her know everything he does.
So keep saying your prayers and we'll check back in a week.
p.s. She also said his teeth would be OK and that they were definitely NOT causing his problem!
