Milo has been doing well. He has put on a little bit of weight and has not deteriorated in any way that I can tell. He is happy and playful, sleeping well.
We continue to do the IV SQ Fluids. Now we do 100mls every second night instead of 50mls every night. Milo does not like it, but we do it the same time, in the same place in the same way every time. So he knows what is coming and he tries to be very good. Sometimes he tries to run away before he should but I manage to keep him steady each time.
He eats the Royal Canin Wet, but does not like it. He will not eat it straight and I have to sit with him and put in some whiskers wet food on the Royal Canin one to get him to eat. In reality he is eating 50% renal food and 50% regular supermarket crap food which is 8% protein. I sit on the floor with him and spoon in bits of food and toss it around a bit and keep him eating as long as I can. I do this as often as I can. Sometimes when he starts to walk away, I just pull him back and he eats some more. He does not like the dry Royal Canin Renal, though Bailey loves it. But Milo was never really much into dry food. Sometimes Steve put in tuna water over the renal biscuits and he has eaten them that way.
Milo is also getting 0.5mls of Aluminium Hydroxide in liquid form twice a day before food. He absolutely hates it but he knows its coming and that food follows, so he allows it. We have not made a day or time to get his blood work checked, but expect to do so in the next week or so.
He loves his new yellow bed :)
