Hi guys. Unfortunately Joey threw up three times this morning so I took him to the vet ASAP. He hasn't been eating no matter what I do so I didn't even know what he was throwing up. I tried dry food, dry food mixed with wet food, just wet, I hand fed him and nothing. I gave him this stuff called a/d that the vet gave him and in one day he only ate a tablespoon of that. When I took him to the vet they told me he had very low blood sugar. She put him on an IV, will give him glucose and something to help stop the nausea. I feel so terrible that I started to cry. I've had him 3 days and I already love him so much. I feel like no matter what I do I can't get him to eat. The vet told me that he will be okay but I'm just emotional thinking about it. The vet told me to leave him at the vets office for a few hours so she can monitor him and then he can most likely come back home today.
If you guys could keep him in your prayers it would mean so much to me. She said he will be fine and I am ready to bust open a cookbook to make him eat anything he wants. I'm going to give him rice and chicken when he comes home to help with the loose stools and nausea. He's so little and has such a bad combination of symptoms. I'll keep you guys updated. |
