I am giving him nutrical and trying to get him to eat the L/D. I have to try the low protein for now until I can get the bile test done. If it is a liver shunt and I keep feeding him protein his seizures will just keep getting worse. So...until then its low protein...if the test comes back negative for liver shunt then I will go raw for him. Did nugget get his bile acid tested? Did they say what caused his seizures? How did he act after his seizures? was he still eating? drinking?

If he does not...then get him on a raw diet. Raw is what really lessened Nugget's seizures...Nugget does not have liver shunt.

Well see, he isn't eating anything right now...I was going to pick up some baby food when I go to get his meds.

I don't understand this. This is by all counts a crappy food to feed your animals so what is the reasoning behind this one? Just curious. I am sorry for the seizures Sheila
