Jethro is still alive and somewhat improved. His stool is becoming more formed, he has nibbled at food a little and he is more alert. I still haven't seen him drink water but he must have since he isn't dehydrated. The vet said the reasons Jethro is shivering are because of the pain and because he hasn't eaten so there's no fire to keep him warm. He didn't want me to give him more banamine because it slows the system down and he doesn't want me to blanket him. The vet said to give him yogurt to help his gut so he gets that when he gets his penicillin & thiamine. I don't want to stress him any more often than I have to.
