He sat out on the patio and watched TV with us last night. We've never been fans of pets on furniture, but both Mason and Minnie got to have some snuggle time in front of the fire. They were quite the pair.
I want folks to realize, he actually has had multiple medical opinions. When he went to the urgent care, that vet diagnosed auto-immune. The follow-up vet (that has 6 vets in the practice) also diagnosed auto-immune. My talk of taking him to another vet is me wanting to make sure I've left no stone unturned and hoping to find the magic bullet that maybe everyone else has missed (probably wishful thinking). I just haven't found another local vet that I think is any more competent then the previous two or if there's a treatment that's any different than the one we're on.
Meanwhile, he gets, loved, spoiled and made as comfortable as we can make him. Trying to find what he'll eat is becoming a challenge. We keep rotating between cooked chicken, meatballs, his food, table scraps etc. He'll like something, then turn his nose up at it the next time. I cooked venison for him last night. It's like he has his own personal chef now.
