I'm really upset right now. I thought Dante was finally, FINALLY, better but I should've known it wouldn't last.
After my last post, 'Happy Saturday', Dante promptly pooped out all that 'weight' I thought he had put on. It was weird, since he had been pooping everyday, for him to have so much saved up. But yeah, pooping free-for-all that day. And since then, about a week ago, he has quickly slipped back into his not eating habit. (Just look back at my previous posts to catch up, this has been a long process that I'm not going to re-explain)
I just don't know...2 weeks ago he was perfectly happy and ate like a tortoise should eat, and now we're back to where we were last AUGUST. It's so hard to watch Dante romp around like he is fine, but he's not eating and losing weight, so he can't be fine....
I feel like I'm fighting an uphill battle here and I'm pretty tired of it. Dante acts perfectly normal aside from the lack of eating. Is this a habit that maybe he's formed (his behavior 2 weeks ago suggests otherwise but IDK)?? I'm going to take him back to the vet for another blood test and an x-ray this time, but I doubt they'll be of much help.
Insight/hugs greatly appreciated right now
