[CLEO & CEASAR]

Two of my babies went through this last November. I know how it feels like. My babies are siblings...from the same litter...Ceasar got sick first...throwing up the bright yellow thick substance which I later found out to be bile acid...he seemed to be fine the first day...throwing up but still active. On that night though he started getting sick every hour...and then every half hour...we rushed him to the emergency...they gave him IV right away because he was so dehydrated...did blood works...amylase & lipase were so elevated...they did x-rays to rule out foreign body obstruction...they showed us the x-rays and there seemed to be a dark portion in the small intestines..but they were not 100% sure...so they did the barrium...the fluid was not passing through...they did an exploratory surgery...there was no foreign body inside but they said his small intestine was so inflamed that nothing could pass through it...they were so baffled that it happened...Our poor Ceasar had to go through that and my husband and I were so stressed going through that.. Ceasar was still trying to get strong in the animal hospital when Cleo started getting sick. The same thing that Ceasar went through...So we didn't wait...we took her in right away...they did the same thing...x-rays...but I think that because we brought her in right away...her intestines didn't get the chance to get so inflamed like Ceasar's...they gave antibiotics, someting to calm her tummy, and IV fluids. She got better right away. That was a scare for us. The vets that took care of them can't pinpoint what could have caused that. They suggested that they be put in a low fat diet and they get treats that don't have high fat contents...that we don't use anything in the house that could be considered toxic like air fresheners, cleaning solutions, toys that have paints. GOD...it was really scary. BUT...every incident is different from another...so my best advise is to take it to the vet as soon as you can...they are still the best people that could take care of them. Prayers to COCO and I hope she'll be fine.
