I've got the animal on a fluid/protein/vitamin regimen. Sunday I fed him 7cc's and the local emergency vet service gave him 6cc's of sub-dermal fluid. He was able to defocate and the urates were quite large in comparison to everything else. This AM he's received 6cc's of mixed goodies- Ensure, Vitamins includign D3 and calcium, Gatorade, and some Uro dust dropped in for solids. I've had him under a heat lamp all night and day now, he's responding better and will put up some fight when being fed the gatorade (doesn't like grape, I guess) and responds positively to touch. Sunday he also recieved a hot Listerene bath and was sprayed for mites. I'm concerned about his eyes- the eyelids look nearly dried shut though I've done no poking. He's got an appointment with a specialist in the morning. Has anyone been through anything like this? Any hints on the eye problem?
