Dr. Matt from Ft. Wright Pet Care called and told me the blood work on Bessie came back normal. That's the good news but the problem hasn't gone away. Bessie has had three doses of her medicine since yesterday and the only food she has eaten were two bowls of cooked oatmeal with some milk and sugar along with a cup-full of dry kibble mixed in. I mentioned this to the Doctor and he can't explain why Bess prefers the oatmeal but he said a bland diet won't cause any problems. His only thought was she may have a mild form of gastrointestinal discomfort that should slowly go away.
We have lots of oatmeal in the house as I make for my wife every morning.
Thanks for all the prayers and good wishes. This little girl has captivated my heart and has become one of the most precious things in my life. (almost, besides my wife, of course) and Ruff and Axl. Oh, you already know this.

Good news from the Vet. But the mystery continues.

Glad that the blood work came back normal.
ReplyDeleteWith my boys, when they had any sort of stomach upset, I would boil hamburger and/or chicken and long grain rice. They gobbled it up. Just a suggestion.
Keep us posted on the baby's progress, please.
I've tried boiled chicken breast and rice for diarrhea but not for upset stomach. I think I'll try the boiled hamburger today and I'll post an update. Thanks for the suggestion.
DeleteKeeping fingers crossed that you get good results!!
DeleteJust wondering if you can update us on Baby Bess and how she's feeling?
ReplyDeleteJust did with a new post. Looks like the problem's been solved.
