Scooter, Scooter, Scooter!

After losing Shiloh so unexpectedly, we decided to make sure that Scooter was doing as well on the inside as he is on the outside. Today we received the results from his urinalysis and blood work. We were surprised to find that he has some crystals in his urine, so his diet will be changed to a prescription diet made to dissolve crystals and bladder stones. He is also showing some elevated kidney and liver enzymes, so we will be adding supplements for kidney and liver support to his diet as well. We also discussed whether it was okay to neuter him, and agree with our regular veterinarian that it's best to wait at this time. Scooter's very happy to hear that he gets special meals now, we're telling him it's gourmet!
