Came home, the house reeked of what smelled like rotting garbage....with 13 ferts, looked high n low for missed poo, and tracked the odor down to Zorro's breath! He had been much less active last few days, and at 2330, was listless, dehydrated, with the worst breath I've ever smelled. Hydrated through the night p.o. with H2O and pedialyte...had him at our Vet's by 0800 when their doors opened. Our Vet still has no idea, states that the X-rays came back neg., is going to keep him overNOC with subQ fluids and IM antibiotics. He's at a loss. I was certain it was a blockage... Need some input please. Zorro is a 1-2 year old we've taken in with 7 others. None of the other 7, or our 5, have exhibited any of this symptomology( Yes, I checked EVERYONE'S breath). The only time I've smelled something like this was when a patient has a blockage, and would vomit up stool...Zorro is not vomiting, keeping down fluids, but no solids, scant dark semi-tarry stools. Any idea's I can give to our Vet would be most warmly welcomed! Michelle at Wild Weasel Rez [Posted in FML issue 4184]
