 UPDATE: Wednesday, March 16, 2011  We prayed all night long. Woke up today and called the Vet. He gave me some promising news. He indicated that he ran some blood work and the reason Chewie keeps vomitting is because of an acute case of pancreatitis. Apparently, the intestinal blockage occured and may have slightly damaged the pancreas. The pancrease began leaking digestive enzymes which is causing chewie to vomit. Luckily pancreatitis is something that is seen frequently. There are 2 great treating agents -fluid -pain control Luckily Chewbacca can remain on the IV and fluid treatment. Making sure his electrolytes are at a good level and his potassium. Blood treatment can be done on a daily basis and he should recover. The doctor indicated that Chewie needs rest and needs to remain on fluids. I am going to continue to hope and pray. Thank you all for your support!  |  
 
 This is good news. :)  Many members here have little ones that have/had pancreatitis and it is treatable to a good extent. I pray Chewie recovers and comes back home soon! Bonny  |  
 
 Sending prayers for Chewie's continued recovery.   |

 UPDATE:  Thank you guys for all your help Chewie is fine! He is back to his annoying, begging for food, staring at me when i eat self. He had the acute pancreatitis and it took him a full week to recover. I am being SUPER careful from now on about keeping my apt ULTRA clean and keeping Chewie confined when we leave him at home. Just wanted to let you guys know, and thank you for your prayers and kind words.  |
