Bugsy is at the vet right now, he is not doing too good... He didn't eat well yesterday all day, and did not eat at all this morning. He sits in front of his food dish, stares at the food, licks one or two kibbles and walks away. If I would guess, I would say he ate yesterday a 1/4 of his regular meals, with much effort of my part.
He also regurgitated hi last antibiotic pill, the night before, prior to this lack of appetite starting.
Per his vet, this can be a few things:
1- the vomiting can have caused his tummy to feel bad, he is not feeling well enough to eat.
2- too much gas in his digestive tract
3- a foreign body
I dropped him off at the vet, and they will take x-rays and check him out to see if they find anything wrong with him.
I gave him 1/2 of pepcid A/C this morning to see if he felt better, but he did not... If the vet feels he has nausea he might give him some other nausea medicine.
An appetite stimulant might be in order. The steroids should help with that also; I did not start it yet as he wasn't feeling well and I did not want to mess up his tummy even more.
I will keep you posted.
For my baby...
