Kazu Hospital Update 💙

Kazu Update 💙 I just spoke with the vet at the Emergency Hospital and overall she thinks Kazu is doing a little bit better. He is alert and not lethargic at all. He has not been hiding as much as he was where they are keeping him and is actually wanting to sit at the front so he can see what is going on around him. They were not able to get him to eat on his own yet so they did give him the nasal G.I. feeding tube a few hours ago and have started introducing a little food to his stomach. His latest bloodwork still show his electrolytes and potassium and everything else are still in a good range. She said his liver enzymes were slightly elevated, but only by four points so she is not concerned about that. His blood glucose level has been staying around 300 but they were giving him a decreased insulin dose since he was not eating. They are going to increase his dose since he now is being fed the tube. They are waiting on his urine to check his ketones again. I was not able to visit Kazu this afternoon because they had too many critically ill patients right now. After talking to the vet, I think it is good that I did not go visit him. She said he is just getting acclimated to being a hospital patient and, seeing us and then us leaving again might set him back and make him more depressed and upset. She said she has seen it happen with other patients and Kazu does seem to have that kind of temperament. I understand what she means and I agree with her. I want to thank you for your well wishes, prayers, website orders, donations and good thoughts for Kazu. I will update you tomorrow after I talk to the night vet in the morning ❤️ pic of Kazu & Anakin from early May.
