If he has no fever, I am still thinking it is a pain issue....how is his pain med ordered? If it is ordered "three times a day, as needed...", count on him needing it and just go ahead and divide up the 24 hours into 3...that will be every eight hours he gets a pain pill.....if going 8 hours between the pain med is too long, and after 4 hours he wakes up shaking and crying, you need to call his vet and tell him the pain med is not helping at the current dosing and ask how often you can give it, 4-5-6 times a day??...which would be every 4,5, or 6 hours/24 hour period. |
