Willy is sick; Update P2, #23

[Asiel]

I hope he didn't get into any Christmas chocolates? Didn't know cat food was that bad for dogs, learn something new everyday.
I hope the little guy recovers by tomorrow, he does sound quite sick. Could you try pepto bismal to soothe his tummy maybe?

My Jadie eats the kitty food here frequently in place of her food - we even had to put it on a table so she couldn't get to it but she has found a way to get onto that table... ugh, naughty girl! She hasn't had any problems with it so far (and she's done it for year...)

I sure hope Willy feels better, soon.

I'm sorry your Willy is sick. I do hope he's better by tomorrow. If not, I guess you'll go to vet. Hope you have a good night with him and all your babies.

I dont think a little cat food would hurt but Ben got into the bag and gorged! Maybe naughty Willy did the same... hopefully he will be fine by tomorrow,

Yes, I figure Willy ate close to 2 cups of that cat food.

He settled down and we had a quiet night. He is exhausted, subdued, but not vomiting.

Just prior to bed last night he ate 1 small piece of plain bread - about the size of a quarter.

I offered him some unsweetened applesauce this morning, and he took 5 licks. Tasha keeps trying to get him to play with her, he looks at her and rolls over to sleep some more.

I guess now it's just a matter of slowly introducing food again. Applesauce, oatmeal, and canned dog food, all in small amounts.

Thanks for all the well wishes, all of you!

Glad to hear Willy is feeling better. That cat food has to be some of the richest stuff.

Thanks, Bonny.

Today he has had 5 tablespoons of canned dog food and done a LOT of sleeping.

Oh my, 18 months of training GONE in 2 days!

I forgot and left my morning breakfast on the side table next to my recliner, while I let Tasha out.

Willy got 2 huge bites in before I could rush back and snag it out of his way.

HE'S BA-ACK! LOL Now I have to remember, and not leave food (or socks, or tissues, etc) around where he can get to it! Just as I had learned to do over the 18 months or so he has lived here.

Amazing that I forget in TWO days!

I gave him a portion of canned food, and he ate it right up.
