However, since he's meowing for me and crawling up to snuggle against my neck, I'm going to remain hopeful. He also ate some pate and I'm making sure he is hydrated by using an eye dropper to give him water.

He's been pooping and peeing so I know he's been eating. I just noticed, this morning, how lethargic he had become. I wonder if that flea bath I gave him triggered something. I might be beating myself up, soon, regardless of the outcome.
