PLEASE HELP!!!!

[Sarthur2]

Did the vet tell you how old she thinks he is?

Did you get a weight?

I'm glad he is getting the treatment he deserves.

 

[lallorona]

Thanks. I'm already setting timers for his next medications. I have high hopes he will recover and grow in to a beautiful boy prayers for Anubis plz!

His chart says 6 weeks old. So I was right about the estimate

Sarthur2 oh and he weight 1.15 lbs. his heart rate was a little slow and his gums were pale but The rest of his vitals were normal.

 

[Sarthur2]

Ok, great. I'll feel better when I know he is eating. He'll need lots of wet food and kitten chow to grow on. Hopefully his appetite will return once he feels better. Has he eaten anything at all yet?

Not yet, my doctor adviced me to give him viralys in the mean time to encourage appetite until clinical signs resolve. It also says on the at home treatment plan that it is an autoimmune supportive medication. Then I will introduce wet food. She recommended tuna.

Follow your vet's advice!

Are your parents letting you keep him for now?

Great news!  So glad you got him help.

Until he recovers, but I'm hoping we can keep him in the end. It would be so hard to grow a bond with him and then let him go..

 

[Sarthur2]

Yes, it would. I hope you can keep him. In the meantime, I'm glad he is with you. We need to get him healthy and eating soon.

Your vet probably suggested tuna initially to get him eating. He will be needing moistened dry food and wet food real soon though, so be sure you get some.

How is he tonight? Any better?

He is sleeping right now. No signs of recovery yet. I gave him his antibiotic, his nasal drops, and his eye ointment. I have a problem. I was given a srynge the measures up to 1.0 ml and I'm supposed to give Anubis 0.65 ml of the autoimmune supportive medication gel. I don't know how much to give him when all I have is the srynge that only measures up to 1.0 ml

It's more than half, but less than 3/4s.  You have to give it your best guess.

 

[Sarthur2]

It will be approximately 2/3's (two-thirds) of one mL, so eyeball it. It will be fine.

Did you say he's getting Nutrical as well?

I was mistaken. It was viralys, which is the autoimmune supportive system medication that comes in a gel. The doctor recommended I take him in the shower (but not in the shower) when we bathe because it will help. Right now I'm going in the shower and bringing him with me.

I figured it out

Thank you!! And yes there will definitely be updates. Once (hopefully) he recovers I will also do a before and after photo collage to show you guys!!

Sarthur2 should I still keep giving him pedialyte? My vet didn't tell me anything about it so I'm unsure and I don't want to wait until they open to call and ask because what if it's something very crucial that can't wait. Or should I start giving him water since he had his sub-q fluids? His skin snaps back a little faster now so I'm guessing that's a good sign.

 

[handsome kitty]

Pedialyte can't hurt, but water is fine as well.

How is he doing this morning?
