When we came home from the trip, Scottie was happy to see us.  He had been drinking water, however, he did not eat any of the food I left for him at all.  I immediately brought out some wet food for him, but he refused.  I kept trying with his other favorites then I went out to buy white chicken breast on Saturday morning, but we had no success with any of them.  Stuart rubbed the chicken to his lips and I tried putting pieces in his mouth, but he was still not interested to eat.  Other than not eating, Scottie seemed ok and not in distress.  However Scottie is already so skinny and we did not think he could last long with no foods.  So we started to prepare ourselves mentally.  We tried to have Scottie doing things he likes, like drinking from a dripping facet, sunbathing at the doorstep and sitting on our laps.  We also wanted the boys to spend some times with Scottie.  Both boys volunteered their laps for Scottie eagerly.  Logan even tried to play string with him. 

    I had to wait to the vet re-opened this morning to call for an appointment.  We made the appointment at noon so I could hang out with Scottie this morning.  Stuart and I took Scottie in for the exam and to talk with the vet.  After discussing the options, we decided to try some IV fluids to help with his dehydration and in hope that he would perk back up.  As soon as we came home, Scottie actually took a couple of bites which made us quite happy.  The rest of the afternoon, I continued to hang out with Scottie while blogging.  We will see how he will do in the days to come.
