If they told you to simply keep him quiet until tomorrow, just do that. Don't play around with meds please....they could actually harm him! Especially something like aspirin....it can cause lots of problems if the correct dose is not given. I personally have never been told by any vet to use aspirin.
I agree. Since the vet didn't prescribe any medication, I'd follow his instructions and just keep him quiet until you can take him in.
