I really don't post all that much, and haven't been on the boards in quite some time, but I really need your good vibes and prayers sent my way.
My little guy Rosco is pretty sick. We are off to the vet for an appointment at 10, and I could really use some prayers sent his way.
He has always been a really picky eater, and has always been skinny, but within the last few weeks he's gotten REALLY skinny. He's drinking excessively and taking really long pees. Yesterday, when I got home from work to take them out he seemed kinda lethargic, and I figured he had been sleeping all day and was just waking up from his nap, but I noticed he was limping.
He went outside and was kinda taking it slow walking around, after being out for about 5 minutes he was putting full pressure on all legs, trotting along, going potty, etc. Seemed happy and normal.
Went back inside, he went right to bed. Tried to get him up for dinner, he refused. I opened a can of wet food and he gobbled that right up but wouldn't eat kibble. He went back to bed. At this point, I'm starting to get worried.
He layed and slept on the couch pretty much the rest of the night, which is pretty typical for him, as he's getting up there in years. This morning when I woke up to take them out, he could barely stand. He was limping really bad, and when he goes to shake himself he can hardly do it.
Instantly called the vet and am leaving within the next 30 minutes to go to his appointment.
Please keep my little Rosco in your thoughts today and send him positive vibes, he really needs it. I will keep you updated on his situation. I hope it's nothing too serious, but I am willing to do whatever it takes to help my baby get better.
Thanks guys, really appreciate it!
