It is great that he is eating well. He likely is not drinking because he still has fluids in his system that are keeping him hydrated. I would just try to syringe him a small amount of Pedialyte (non-flavored) diluted 50:50 with water later, especially if he is still vomiting or has loose stools. Otherwise, continue to feed him and give him his medications that your vet has prescribed in full. I do hope that Nelson continues to do well and recover from his parvovirus infection. Best of luck and take care. : )
