Goldy Update #3

[gategrrl]

The X-ray was clear, the vet didn't see any chicken bones. He couldn't see any obstruction in Goldy's gut. The bloodwork was clear. Goldy is now going on antibiotics. If those don't work, then he'll try another treatment. He calls it "gastroentitus", a sort of umbrella term. He's not sure at this point what the problem is. I'm supposed to call back around 3:30, midafternoon, to see what's up.

I'm debating now whether I should go with Mermaid and her friend and her father to Santa Monica Pier this afternoon. If I don't go, Little Guy doesn't go (although I told him I'd take him next week all by himself if I needed to stay home because of Goldy)...but the Guy has expressed some misgivings about Friend being able to handle the two girls in the Pier, where there are hundreds of people meandering about. The two girls get crazy when they're together. I do have my cellphone all powered up and ready to go, of course.

Glad it isn't specifically the chicken bones, but not so good that they dont' know what it is. Hopefully it's just the 'aftershocks' of the bones and it will right itself with the antibiotics. :)

Come back to this thread - I think I know what the reason was. I'll have to ask the vet sometime if it might have been the combination of the chicken bones and the two pull-ups he ate later in the week (gross, I know). I completely forgot about him doing eating those things.

Pull-Ups, eh? Try cloth training pants, he might not eat them. ;D I even have some I can send you...
