Well, the little guy survived his vet visit. I picked him up around 4 this afternoon because I had to go to work at 5. I could hardly tear myself away from him because he was so doped up he was staggering around like a drunken sailor. I was afraid he'd hurt himself. He had been sedated because the Dr. was going to catherize (?) him, but he ended up peeing before the procedure. But the Doc still checked him out thoroughly and gave him a cortisone shot.
Maxie just wanted was to get to his food and water. He was hungry because he hadn't had anything since yesterday. The vet sent me home with Hill's Prescription K/D for him.
Just got home from work, and he's still groggy, but he's walking a little better. Hopefully, he'll get a good night's sleep and feel better in the morning. He's laying peacefully on my lap right now. Molly is really bent out of shape!! She hates the smell he brings home, I think. Last time, she growled at at him every time he came near her for a week! At least I'll be home most of the day tomorrow so I can keep an eye on him. My poor baby boy!
Thanks to everyone who sent hugs and good wishes for him--I told him that he has a lot of people who love him.
