Hi, my boy Charlie got trapped in an abandoned house for two days, 1.5nights late last week. He went outside thursday morning, i don't know if he ate breakfast or not that day, we finally found him at 1.30am friday night/saturday morning. It was sweltering hot, it's been 45c 111f here lately. He was very weak and lethargic, a little confused. He drank lots of water as soon as he was home, then i made up some royal canin rehydration solution for him. It took me 12 hours to get 100ml in him. By 7am saturday he was eating small amounts of wet food by himself, we sparked his appetite with tinned tuna. He has continued to eat wet food since. Not quite to his normal appetite but getting there. He is drinking by himself too. Anyway, we popped out to the grocery store this afternoon and when we got back we discovered he had had diarrhoea, he made it to the litter tray but it was a grey almost clay colour. We are taking him to the vets in a couple of hours when they open, he is still nibbling at his food and i have given him a little royal canin recovery food blended with water via syringe. I'm so worried about hepatic lipidosis. I will of course request a liver panel. He doesn't appear jaundiced and has not shown signs of dehydration since yesterday midday. I've rubbed hid gums and done the tent test. Any advicr anyone?
