Boy would it. I doubt it will happen. He isn't doing well. The barium xrays
showed a stomach half full of hair. I just want him to POOP. I've been
stuffing him with laxatone (per vets orders) so that he smells like it. He
does keep down food and water, and he urinates, but no POOP yet. It is so
frustrating. Tomorrow I'll take him in again. *sigh*

The poor little thing might have developed a bezoar, which can happen
when a hairball gets out of hand. A bezoar might need to be removed
surgically when it is too hard and large to pass in the stool.

Yeah, I know. However, the good news is, we just got about a 5 inch long
"thing" of hair out of his butt. I cannot tell you how happy that makes me.
He may not be out of the woods but he is CLOSER. The vets said they would
not consider surgery until we tried laxatoning the **** out of him. I still
think no matter what we will go in tomorrow to make sure he is properly
hydrated and what they say. Poor guy needed help getting this one out
But I am much more hopeful now that this is NOT a bezoar.
