We sent a CBC out on Yozum on 3-1.

He is definitely feeling better. The bruising started to clear up yesterday (Tues.), and is almost completely gone today. He's sucking down the Chicken Baby Food as fast as I can give it to him, and the tooth grinding has improved since we switched to the baby food. The vet is almost sure now that it was injection-related.

Here are the results. (Reference Ranges are in parentheses:

WBC 7.2 (3.5-7.0)
