I went to see him this afternoon. I was with him for over an hour and did not want to leave him. but, i spoke to a friend that is a exotic/small animal vet and she suggests to leave him there one more night and have them get him off the iv and iv glucose and prepare him for home care prior to me picking him up tomorrow. she also said that the coccicida causes inflamation of the intestines and perhaps that he may not be eating b/c he is in pain and to have the hospital give him some pain killer in small amount to relieve and relax him to eat. Well he looks much better than yesterday and he ate 1 teaspoon of baby food and was much more active and GAVE ME LOTS OF PUPPY KISSES and i did not want to let him go. He is so sweet! He had the liver workup and an ultrasound for Liver Shunt and both were negative. so that is a big plus!
hoping he eats though tonight and tomorrow morning
lots of puppy kisses to all!!
