Chipper + Cat Food = Ick! Ick! Ick!

That's great news, Kimmy!

Things are starting to look up, and hopefully Chipper will be home with you soon! What kind of diet are they going to put him on? Perhaps all of the excitement of a new home and everything Chipper went through before coming to you guys wore his immune system down and like your psychic said...he got a very bad flu. Poor thing!
Like tats said in her post, I got goosebumps when I read that message from your psychic and Andy's reaction.

**hugs**

That's wonderful news, I also had a feeling of calm come over me when I was thinking about him and wondering how things would turn out. I didn't want to say that and sound like a kook, but that's why I said the other day I had the faith he would be okay. Can't wait until he gets home and we can get some happy boy pictures. But you can tell him for me, that if it's attention he's after, we will give him plenty without him getting sick to get it!!!

They are feeding him a Eukanuba perscription type that's made for sensitve stomachs and GI tracts. I have a feeling they'll send it home with us.

But Dr. Byle said after a few weeks, we can ween him off it and feed him something similar.

Kimmy, that's such good news. I hope Chipper will be home with you and healing very soon!

That does sound like good news! Fingers, toes and paws crossed that Chipper is his chipper self again soon!

You just clinched it..I'm calling Nancy

Bumpity-Bump!

Did Chipper get a Parental Visit tonight? ...

We'd hoped he got *sprung* for good behavior ... but just Feelin Better will do for now.

Too bad they don't have internet PawBoards in each patient's "room".

Check in when you can.

I'm uploading video.

He's still at the hospital but we're planning on bringing him home tomorrow morning.

Well, I guess while I'm waiting for the video to load, I'll share the photos from tonight. He looks absolutely wonderful! They've been feeding him every 4 hours and he eats each meal with gusto and keeps it down. No bowel movements but the vets said the enemas were real rough so he's got a bit of a sore bum. We got to be there for one of the feedings and I thought he was going to take poor Michelle out to get to that bowl! *laughs*

Hi Pet Talk!

I love mom's lap

Oh yeah... that's the spot

Hey dad! Did you say they're bringing me more food?

MmmmmMmmmm good!

What do you mean there is no more?

I like your hugs mom

Can I go home now?

I'm ready!

OK - it's now LATE Saturday Morning ... WHERE's our Chipper??

Did Kia ride along for the pick-up?
(Wonder if Kia would *recognize* the MSU Hospital?)

WELCOME HOME, Chip!!
