yes it's the quacker instant one min oatmeal; boil it on low heat for 10 or 15 min to make it mushy and easier to digest. you can even give that alone just to see if he gets better before adding any protein. serve it with a little of water for extra moisture. |
I'll try the Oatmeal in the morning, and think about non-chicken kibble products.

Thank you for your input. I hope I don't have to withhold food because he still has a great appetite. He was begging for each meal and yogurt treat today even though he continued to throw up. I reduced the amount of everything I usually give him.
What is your choice of remedies for hypoglycemia and (mild) dehydration -- nutrical, pedialyte, or something else? He is over 7 pounds and has never had an episode before. Of course, if he is really bad, I'll go straight to the vet.
