Update When I dropped off Scruffy's samples at the vet yesterday, I asked for a copy of the bloodwork. Scruffy's albumin level was 1.9g/DL [normal 2.7-4.4]. His globulin level was 1.5g/dL [normal 1.6-3.6]. His calcium was a bit low at 7.5 mg/dL and his triglycerides were a bit low as well at 28 [normal 29-291]. Scruffy is back to being himself after having the diarrhea over the weekend. He is ravenous when it is time for his food. I have been giving him white rice and chicken breast and he licks his plate clean. He is super energetic and wants to play [as usual]. Let's see what the doctor says when he calls around 11.
Also, all of his kidney function levels were normal [BUN, Urea Nitrogen, and Creatinine] as were his liver levels [AST, ALT, GGTP, and bilirubin]. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
