He's gotten significantly worse over the last couple of days. He wouldn't play, not even paw at some toys this morning. He's eating even less than he was before. I'm feeding him every 3 hours now and sometimes he won't take a single bite, sometimes he'll eat about half. Just now he finished a small meal, but it was only 1.5oz of food, took 2 hours to eat and took me putting him next to the food bowl every 15 minutes to do that. He's up to 85 calories within the last 12 hours, which is about 1/3 of what I want him to have in 24 hours. If I feed him and leave the house, he doesn't eat it. He requires constant attention right now and no one I know can give him that for 15+ hours/day. Hopefully I can get into the vet early this week, look into maybe getting appetite stimulators or something. I don't know if it's bad enough to require a feeding tube for a short time, that looks like misery.

Anyways, bummed that I'm more than likely going to have to cancel my trip to California. I'm out $350 for the flight, but on the bright side I won't have to spend ~$700 between hotels, ubers, trains, etc. and I won't waste extra money at an Indian casino.
