I've been on Death Watch with Peek for a few days now. On Wednesday (Christmas evening) he couldn't hold down anything. He would try to drink water and it would come right back out. He also has diarrhea. He has had no interest in food at all. I started to force feed him through a syringe Friday and Saturday, Saturday the vomiting stopped and he started to show interest in water and a tiny bit of baby food. No BMs or pee for 3 days, and can't get up on his own. Today he's drinking more (I offer him food and water every 1-2 hours).

He has started to try to get up when he has to pee, but he still can't stand or walk. I don't know if the vomiting was from the meds or if he caught a bug at the vet's that has made him so ill. I'm giving him supportive care at home, bc he is drinking well at this point and as long as the vomiting doesn't start up and I can get him to eat, I feel there's a chance he may regain his strength. I'll be calling his vet in the morning. I didn't think he would make it through today, but he does seem slightly improved.
