Hey, just wanted to update you since you suggested going home with fluids. Today, I put Harrison outside with some food and let her be. Within a few minutes she ate all the greens and a little zucchini! It was the first time she ate in weeks! We had an appointment with the vet to be shown how to administer her fluids. I told them she finally ate, but they seemed reluctant for her to get better. They said her kidney results suggested renal failure but to keep up fluids and that eating was a good sign. They said 1-2 times a week and in a month they will recheck her blood. Hoping for the best, but they did leave me with some feeling of doubt. I’m certain she ate some weed killer. Hoping I can flush her system and she can improve. Warm soaks, too. I’ll keep you posted.I would ask about sub q fluids at home , and I do believe b complex stimulates appetite , and makes them feel better …….. did she recently come out of hibernation ? I would keep her temps 80-85 and not depend on her to regulate her own temp …...I believe off blood work levels may also just indicate dehydration ? i'd keep her in as optimum conditions as I could and bother her as little as I had too …… when was the last time she ate on her own ? I've never been a fan of force feeding them , not there isn't a place for it , but to me it's among the last resorts …….it takes months and months for them to starve to death ……...
