: Now, if you would give me a list of further

: Thank you for your quick response. Prince hasn't had his tempiture taken yet, as he seens to be more in pain from the touch. His right back side, when I touch it he crys. He has been with me all morning and afternoon but now he is under the bed. If he isn't better by Monday I will take himm to the Vet. I will give him baby asprin untill then and just give him all the love I can.
