Over the past two days Sadie has been lethargic. She’s usually energetic. Today she stopped eating.
It sounds like Sadie is experiencing some discomfort, particularly with her lethargy and loss of appetite. These symptoms, along with itching, could suggest a range of issues such as allergies, an infection, or even stress-related factors. Given her history of seizures, it's crucial to keep a close eye on any changes in her behavior or the emergence of additional symptoms.
In the meantime, there are a few things you can try at home to help her feel more comfortable. First, ensure she has a quiet and cozy place to rest, away from any stressors or loud noises. You might also offer her some bland, easy-to-digest food like boiled chicken and rice to see if she shows any interest in eating. Keeping her hydrated is important, so encourage her to drink water. Adding a bit of low-sodium chicken broth to her water might make it more appealing. Additionally, check her skin for any signs of irritation or redness that could be causing the itching.
If her symptoms persist or worsen, especially considering her history of seizures, it would be wise to consult with a veterinarian. They can conduct a thorough examination and possibly run some tests to identify the underlying cause of her symptoms.
