Chase is home and eating voluntarily!

Monday the vet told me Chase started eating some food voluntarily, so they were going to hold off on feeding through the tube to encourage it. He contined to eat on his own, and they let me bring him home today. He ate a bit of the AD/clinicare, but preferred to try the regular food his buddies were eating. Hopefully it won't be a problem. He ate a decent amount, and I'm going to coax him to eat some more before bed. The head vet discharged him, and he was upset at how much I had to pay for the feeding tube insertion. He said he has done plenty in the past and they should have called him. Of course, my reg. vet said they haven't had tubes there for ages. Hopefully they'll get some in stock for the next poor animal. Now all I have to do is heal my infected ear and the eardrum that appears to have ruptured between the time I saw the doctor and got my antibiotics today. If it's not one thing.... But the good news far outweighs that!

 

Paws crossed and healing prayers for BOTH you and Chase, Jeanene!

So nice to have him home, right?

 

Awesome! continued prayers...

 

Regardless of cost, glad the feeding tube helped him and now here's to eating on his own!

Good thoughts for continued recovery!
