Hello,
OH my, so the vet did confirm it was gout? How old is he & what is his weight?
He looks too lightweight for them to perform a blood test, correct?
I would ask him to prescribe allopurinol, because that really needs to be used in combination with black cherry to help inhibit uric acid production.
Try to get 2-4mls of oral fluids into him daily, to help out. Baths would be helpful, too.
What is his diet like & how often do you give calcium to him?
