The vet visit went remarkably well. Of course Honey didn't limp at all . He does have a really bad upper respiratory infection, he's very dehydrated, and we're not sure why he was/is limping.

The vet, one I was not familiar with actually, was very kind and good with Honey. Palpated all over and was very compassionate. She ordered a senior blood panel, a urine sample (which they couldn't get because his bladder was sooo tiny because he's dehydrated), and put him on clavamox drops for the next 10 days. They also did sub q fluids so he's not so dehydrated. Hope that's not something he'll be needing too much of, because I don't think I could do it here at home. I nearly passed out watching her put the needle in!


I'm hoping this will help him and that I'll have him around for a while yet. I'm still worried about the limping, it's so strange that he didn't do it at all at the vet, yet he dragged his back leg while here at home for the past 24 hours! Frustrating!!

Keep my boy in your prayers. We get the blood results tomorrow. Hoping he's not really sick, and that this is just a little set back.
