Sad Rocky is ill liver shunt maybe PLE?

Rocky seemed to be sluggish this past week, nothing I could really explain. He just seemed tired maybe a little lazy. Friday night he started having terrible smelly gas. Saturday morning he was less gassy, but his little belly seemed slightly distended, one episode of vomit light orange in color. This morning his belly was softer and smaller. By four o'clock his lil belly was very distended and the gas was back, lethargic. I called the vet and he met us in 20 minutes.

Rocky is dehydrated, high white count 20, low protein count no temp. Dr started IV's more blood work and tests on Monday.

Rocky is four and never been sick. Is it possible he could have a liver shunt or PLE?

Please pray for him.
