Granny's gone and done it again

Quote: ugh. No telling what he ate. If there has to be a procedure, maybe they will let you make payments. Make sure they take the xray and look at the results BEFORE they draw blood for tests. If he is blocked, he doesn't need blood work, and I think it's most likely something physical like that. You should tell them you are on a fixed income and have a limited amount to spend. They should be making decisions with that in mind.

I tried all that already. If he is blocked and need surgery I think this will all be a waste because I wont be able to pay that and will have to have him put down.

there is a care credit card for pets. I could try that .

he had the scoop for the litter box chewed outside.

There have to be some home remedies, depending on what and where the block is. (or if it is) Barf it out from the stomach or grease it through the intestine. Do you have any ASPCA shelters around? Maybe they can help, although seems like raising money is what they do best.

If he's cleaning the litter box for you, you don't need a scoop I guess.

I wondered about vinegar but how would you get any down him?

If he's really blocked, putting anything in his system might cause complications. Don't know much about this, so I was reading a bit. If he's not vomiting, then it's out of his stomach. What else could it be besides something he ate? No fever?

If you have bones, boil him up some broth. Pedalyte works too if you have some.
