The most important thing is to keep the little fella hydrated. In March, Toto had what turned out to be a gastrointestinal inflammation and she dehydrated. It happened while we were traveling and we had to find an emergency vet in Kentucky ... we had to force pedialite down her with a syringe all night or else leave her in a strange place hooked up to an IV for her fluids [this absolutely was not an option!]. He gave her a medication called Flagyl for the inflammation and a couple of days later, she was back to normal! Please get him to the vet ASAP ... we were amazed that Toto could dehydrate so quickly because even though she would not eat, she was drinking her normal amount of water! Good luck and please keep us posted.
