 A question
Charlie woke up this morning with bloody diarrhea and I rushed him to the animal emergency hospital (my vet is closed today, naturally!!). He was dehydrayed so they kept him to give him IV fluids. They are doing tests now - the vet ( that I do not know since it's an ER) mentioned several things it could be - pancreatitis was one of the possibilities. Charlie is current on all his shots - this hit so suddenly and unexpectedly I can't imagine what he has and I am worried sick. Yesterday I did think it was unusual that twice I got up and Charlie, who is always my shadow, stayed on the couch. He has never done that before- if I leave the room - he goes with me.... So in hindsite, I think he felt bad then...?
He did not eat last night but drank a lot of water.
Has anyone ever experienced anything like this?
He always weighs 4.6lbs. But today he was in the 3's...?
I just called the vets and they don't have any results in yet -
This is a miserable waiting game! :-( |
