Sorry you baby is sick. Could it be HGE? My Cali had that a few months ago and was really sick. The key is quick medical help which you did. I feed my 3 California Natural and their health biscuits and Zuke's natural treats that's it. Any variation in her diet gives her tummy problems. Also when Cali got the HGE, I took her to the ER and they didn't diagnose her with it they gave me some medicine for her stomach and sent her home. 2 days later she was worse so I took her to my regular vet and she did a test called a PCV(packed cell volume) and it was over 60 so they diagnosed her with HGE and kept her for the day on IV fluids and medicines, I took her home at night and they left the IV port in and I took her back the next day to stay for the day and have more treatment. So if your little guy is no better I would get him in again. I hope he feels better soon.
