RobinM Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 Still on the azathioprine? Yes, 2 weeks today. We are up to 1202 calories for today and the night is still young. PArt of the reason the calorie count was so high was that we were home Fri, Sat and Sunday to feed him every 2-3 hours. My son comes home from school @ 12:30 to let him out and give him food.

Guest myjazzy Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I'm glad to hear he's eating. He must be feeling better. Have you weighed him lately? I looked up Polli's pedigree and she's a Cobblepot, just like my Darla was. She was a happy, crazy, funny girl, and the she was also a white/brindle. Billie made a portrait of her and I think it's still up in her Cafe Press store. She definitely captured her personality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinM Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 Yes, Polli id a happy, crazy, funny demanding sweet loving girl. I adore her. There are just no words. When Poll is quiet (like now) I worry. The picture of Polli that Billie did is in my living room!

Guest Fasave Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Hang in there Robin. I've been following your story for a while. My guy was diagnosed with PLE/PLN and severe IBD about a month ago following a three day hospitalization and an endoscope. I spent $60 on an 18 pound bag of z/d food to only have it go straight through him Fortunately, a local greyhound kennel had a girl on it so it went to good use. After the z/d reaction, I went straight to a certified nutritionalist and had a diet formulated specifically for his needs. So now I use a kitchen I never knew I had It's frustrating. I know. It's tough to get weight on him and my guy particularly hates breakfast so the mornings are very frustrating trying to get all the pills in him and then the stress of thinking he may not eat at all. Stay the course and I hope you find the nutritionalist a good resource. Thinking good thoughts for Beau. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissn333 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Was just checking in to see how things are going. I now have a foster dog that doesn't want to eat. He was just released from the hospital after a bout with pancreatitis and he might have some kidney damage as a result. He's emaciated looking and is completely uninterested in the k/d that the vet sent home with him. Per advice from some friends I've been feeding him raw chicken necks and ground turkey. Sounds like Mr. Beau has some allergies/intolerances that would prevent him from eating something like that though. Fingers crossed for more successful calorie days!
