it has been a rough couple of days for the youngest of my family....
Bentley had not been eating or drinking. I hand fed him some frozen broth and gave him water from a dropper on Monday...by Tuesday he was not better. I took him to the vet on Tuesday afternoon- as soon as they could get us in. They kept him for a few hours, He got an IV and some medication. He apparently got a protozoa/parasite (similar to giardia). I picked him up last night and we kept him at home overnight. He still was not himself and did not drink unless i gave it to him from the dropper, and even then he only had about 1 tablespoon of water. I was instructed to not let him eat. I brought him back to the vet this morning for a check up and they are keeping him today-- more IV fluids and medication. I will pick him up this evening and give him meds at home.
I totally fell apart when the vet tech took him from me this morning and he started to whimper and cry as he clung to me.... my poor little guy. I know he will feel better this afternoon.
