Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh Tommy, what a terrible position to be in.
My one thought is the vet who spoke with you about his declining tempertature, etc. I know you can't speak with anyone at the specialty clinic, but is there any way you could speak with her? You seem to trust her judgment.
I could meet you in Millbrae.
But you have no infant seat in your car, alas.
I love her so much at this adorable size, but things are going to be rather more flexible when she's all walky and talky and big enough to only need a nice easily portable booster seat.
So I called again - Senor has shown no improvement; his prognosis is "poor." I didn't get a chance to talk to the vet herself. They suggest I come in and talk to her and see Senor.
She's done for the day at 4:00, so I'm heading off to the vet hospital in a few....
Happy Birthday, Sean!
I don't know what I would do were I in your shoes, tommyrot. Does Senor Sock seem to be suffering, now? Would he mind being at a strange vets getting tests done?
Hippo birdies Sean!!!

Sean, Happy Birthday!
Scarlett and Rhett are adorable!
They're my parent's puppies. They're very sweet.
So what the veterinary hospital sometimes does is transfer a pet to one of the specialty clinic's emergency facilities (before the clinic's regular facilities are open) and then when the clinic opens (say, tomorrow morning) they are transfered to their regular facilities and receive immediate treatment. So one problem for me is I wouldn't even be able to talk to anyone at one of these clinics (at least, I don't think so) before transferring him there.
Tommyrot, if the specialty clinic has emergency facilities there should be someone you can talk to even if it isn't the person who will end up treating Senor Sock. Did the emergency vet recommend a particular clinic? There might be a vet tech on duty who can at least tell you what the process will be. I'm hoping for the best for both of you.
Oh dear, Tom. I'm so sorry.
At this point I'm thinking of doing what the vet recommends. The vet tech wasn't sure, but the tech said, "I don't think she'll be recommending a specialist."
