If the animal is severely weak and cannot or will not drink on it's own, Those dastardly know nothing veterinarians can do a "Normosol-R infusion"

This is not a do it yourself at home thing, It's the equivalent of a ringers lactate IV for a trauma victim.

When an animal is on the brink of death, when the organs are ready to shut down forever, doing this procedure will improve chances of survival immensely.

Thankfully this Sav sounds like it's turning around wonderfully, so it would not be necessary.
