He is that is one of the things that he said he might have.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and little Cosmo. I'm anxious to see what the vet says..

[Bitsy]

Oh I'm so sorry. I will say a prayer right away. Poor little thing. I hope he is o.k. Keep us posted if you can.

God bless,

He has giardia and coccidia, poor little thing. He is sleeping right now. I feel so bad for him, I hope he has a speedy recovery, so far so good. he hates the pill I have to give him, any suggestions on how to give it to him.

[Bitsy]

Try wrapping it in American cheese. That is how I give Sophia her Sentinel and also Sandy. It works for both of them.

I don't even know anything about what he has. How quick should he recover? Is he home with you now? Poor little baby. Keep us posted please.

Poor little Cosmo! I've been wondering all day how he's doing! Thank goodness you found out what was wrong and it's treatable. I'm assuming he's home with you again since you mentioned giving him his pill...at least I hope he's home with you! I'll be praying for his speedy recovery!

I know just what you are going through staci, about three weeks after I got my little tink she started vomiting profusely I rushed her to the vet poor baby couldnt hardly even hold her poor little head up. She had to stay over night I was sooo worried I hardly slept a wink and I slept with her blankey and her duckey. I felt horrible like it was my fault, the next day when the vet called I was so happy to hold her again she looked amazing compared to the way she looked the day before, I couldnt believe it she was just as happy to see me as I was to see her! Other than them shaving the hair off the front of her front legs for her iv's you couldnt tell she was ever sick. She had to be on medicine for three days, it was in a little vile like deal and it was yellow it smelled pretty good, after the first day I gave it to her I think she liked it! It was what your baby has though coccidiosis after that she was fine, your baby will be back to himself in no time! Best of luck Amanda

Poor little Cosmo ... so glad he's resting! Toto had that when she was tiny ... our vet gave her a liquid medication. She just went ahead and put it in little syringes [14] in a container which made it really easy to give. When she got older and had pills to take, I put a dab of NutriCal on the end of my finger and stuck the pill in the middle of it. With my other hand I would gently make her open her mouth and when her little tongue came out I immediately put the pill on the back of her tongue, close her mouth and hold it shut for a minute. This forces her to pull her tongue in and swallow! I then give her another dab of NutriCal and she is happy!! Hope Cosmo is better soon!

I also have to give him the liquid medicine. Poor little guy, the vet said he liked it though, Guess I will find out this afternoon.
