Hopefully it’s Patches body using lots of energy in healing …..
You (and your oh) are doing a great job of being observant and support feeding him

Patches had to go to the vet again today. Both boys had a well-deserved nap afterwards
We’ve got two more meds to add in, along with the original two + syringe feed. And Tofu still has his two meds twice a day as well. I am getting through so many syringes
Patches is a good boy and likes his critical care - he was the most well behaved ever on the zoom meet and has continued to be an angel ever since, I think he likes being on camera!
He does get grumpy when he’s had enough though

He set a wonderful example of "how to behave for syringe feeds while being utterly gorgeous"

Patches is continuing to cause me worry 
he’s not improving yet after two weeks on baytril and five days of Zithromax added in. Booking him another vet appointment for some imaging in case he’s got a bladder stone
I just worry if there is a stone, that’s another surgery so close to him having his mammary tumour removed. March has been a stressful month for several reasons and all the syringe feeding is taking its toll. I’m just venting really
His weight is maintaining and he’s still eating his veggies, and his pain is enough under control that he’s comfortable and happy in the cage. He’s an adorable little man, as is Tofu of course
I labelled some critical care with/without probiotic for my partner. Patches saw fit to chew the label, of course

It's must be exhausting fingers crossed the vet will eventually find the problem even if it's through the process of elimination

Sorry that Patches is still struggling.
Hope the vet can confirm what is wrong.
Holding you in my thoughts
