He doesn’t know how the tag was loosened on Sebastian’s leg, he told me that it’s only happened one other time. And they called the memorial place, I should have a refund on the credit card by now.
Benny was a doll. Not a peep out of him on the way over. He’s gained an ounce from his last visit, which was years ago. The vet said he’s looking really good. He checked out Ben’s ears and didn’t see anything that could cause the violent scratching, diagnosed allergies and said to keep using the Tresaderm drops. I was told he was a champ when they took his blood, just kicked back and didn’t fight them.
The vet called an hour or so ago with results from the blood test, vet said Ben is in the beginnings of stage two renal failure (why am I not surprised?). His bun was 44, creatinine was 4.3. Not high enough to call for fluids (yay!). He’ll be on calcitriol along with Mickey.
Who, by the way, is not putting up a huge fight when he gets fluids. The vet gave me a tube and explained how to use it if I want to try just hanging the fluids and doing it that way.
I dunno…..
