Maybe good news? So this morning he just was so resistant I only gave him a little of the Emeraid and he refused the milk thistle so only got a little in. When I came home his eyes were receded not totally normal but quasi-normal. Definitely less swollen. The eyes themselves look okay no crust or goop and he sees fine. That’s was never an issue. I put him in his warm bath and he drank pretty well several times. No poop but he seemed relaxed in the bath and no black beard. He pooped yesterday a pretty good one but not so much urate like a thumbnail but good poop. I brought him upstairs and his energy level was remarkable. He was climbing up his little covered step stool, looking out the window and glass surfing when he saw the squirrel back and forth...hopping down and behaving fairly normal...definitely not 100% but a big improvement. We have a vet check tomorrow I had originally scheduled it as euthanisia but changed it so he can evalauate. Perhaps too much of the force feeding and it was causing his gut stress after 6 weeks of it 2X a day ~3ml each time...idk??? Just the fact that his body/gut could rest today maybe was a good thing. Perhaps it is at the point he needs a bath to encourage drinking and hydration and to see if he is ready to eat on his own. If the vet thinks he is on the right track that is our thought...offer finely chopped greens with vitamin supplement daily and see what happens for a few days.
Do his eyes recede in size any during the day, or have they been staying
swollen for extended periods of time?
It may have something to do with his liver causing pressure, but not sure.
Is his beard dark when he goes to sleep at night?
Let us know how he is doing.
