[Vanessa]

> Hello All,

> I've been a 'lurker' on the digest for a while now and I hope someone out

> gives a soft squeak when he tries to pee.  I took him to the vet
yesterday,
> and he gave him a shot and checked his urine (no blood thankfully) and has
> him on antibiotics.  He's eaten and drank very little today and has put
out
> very little urine or poops and I'm worried sick.  I've been giving him
water
> with his medicine syringe to keep him hydrated and trying to entice him
with
> some greens which he's eaten some of.  If he hasn't improved by tomorrow,
> I'll take him back to the vet...is there anything I can do for him in the
> meantime?  I feel so lost and scared....Any suggestions anyone can offer
> would be appreciated, and you can email me direct if you'd like.  Please
> keep Ratso in your prayers....
