Thank you, he's a spunky lil character for sure. You're right, he's had those herbs in his system for at least 11 /12 days, I was just hoping to see a little bit of improvement. But one day on chic / rice won't do it.

I have heard the rice sometimes is not always the best that white potato and even oatmeal might be better.
Rice had always worked for my girls, this is the first time I'm giving him this, I'll see how it goes for now. But at least he's eating. If it's still the same by Friday I have no choice but to bring him in regardless of what vet I get. My vet may be coming in at 5PM Friday idk, another ER visit, I PRAY I don't have to fight to get him in.
