Pray with me for the recovery of Bubbles who has not eaten a thing for two days, is lethargic and appears to be limping. I wrote he is a stoic little fellar as he lives despite having a heart condition.
Is Bubbles a cat or dog? Goldfish? It sounds like a terrific name for a goldfish. If it's a cat or dog, you should take I to the veterinarian ASAP. Oh, wait a minute, if it was a goldfish, it wouldn't be limping.
ALL for your kind words.. The biggest worry is its a long weekend here in Oz and there are no vets open. I have been in contact with an Emergency Services place but not answering.
Praying for your dear little Bubbles, Craig. And sending you some hugs to help cope with the stress of worrying about him, too. It is so hard when we know that they are old, and a heart condition puts and extra burden on them. Keep us updated on how he is doing !
My dear Chipper almost died from some kind of poisoning when he was young, and his kidneys shut down . The vet kept him for several days, but he still could not even raise his head when I brought him back home, and didn’t eat. I got raw cows milk from a friend who had a milk cow, and I fed him fresh milk with an eye dropper , and prayed as I fed him. It seemed to give him the strength he needed, and was able to start lifting his head again, but it took 2-3 days for him to get well enough to do that, and be able to actually drink the milk himself. He suffered from kidney failure the rest of his life, but still lived a long and happy life. He was like a child to me, way more than a dog, and it broke my heart last summer when he finally got so bad that the only thing I could do was put him to sleep. There is a thread in this section somewhere about Chipper, too. I hope that your little Bubbles pulls through this, and will keep my prayers going for you and Bubbles both.
