Earle got to come home last night. The clinic is closed all weekend so he'll get more monitoring here than he would there. There's staff around and a vet on call, but my vet figured Earle might do better at home. He got very excited when I came to visit him. I'm not convinced he'll make the whole weekend at home.
He is doing better. He's brigher, not as lethargic, he wants cuddles and belly rubs and is giving kisses. He still won't eat. He's had about two mouthfuls so far. He's only allowed rice and low fat cottage cheese. I probably wouldn't eat that either! I might try adding a tiny bit of Paxil's kibble to see if he picks out the kibble. Paxil has chronic pancreatitis so she has a low fat food that might not bother Earle too much.
He is having some dry heaves and brought up some clear bile last night. He is drinking quite a bit of water that seems to be staying down. He looks very worried and bites at his belly sometimes. I think it still hurts or is uncomfortable at least. Last night he was playing with his squeaky tennis ball. Today he's moving more, but not playing. He's laying beside my chair right now.
If he can't keep the rice mixture down, he goes back to the vet immediately.
You can see how thrilled he is with the food offerings!

But, I'm glad to hear he's able to at least keep the water down! Keep up the good work, Earle!
