Katie - I'm so sorry you and Sophie are going through such a tough time.  I will pray for you and her, and that you figure out what is best for her.  She is so lucky to have you to take care of her.  Good luck and keep us posted.

Hello all

Ive been a member of this forum for a while.  Ive really enjoyed the
stories and advice and have been saddened with each passing of a
little one.  I was going to get around to introducing myself and my
chi Sophie but now I need help and prayers.=(

Sophie is 7 months old and the joy of my life.  <besides my wonderful
3 older human kiddies=) >  I have had a lot of doggies Ive loved but
Sophie seems to be surpassing them all.  She is so wonderful and so
attached to me.  It's like she worships me.  lol  Kinda flattering=)

Anyways, I thought my daughter and I were doing a good thing when we
took in a mamma cat and her kittys to foster until the kittys could
be placed.  Mamma Cat was to be downstairs.  So...yesterday I left
the door open...cry...and mamma cat got upstairs, and scratched
Sophie in the eye.  Sophie was rushed to the vet, then to a vet
opthamoligist.  To keep this short...er, for the best prognosis,
Sophie had microsurgery on her eyeball yesterday to close a puncture
that went all the way to the center of her eyeball.  They wanted to
keep her over night to keep her quiet.  I couldnt even go see her
because they didnt want her excited and jumping.  We did drop off her
beddy and special food.  I may know more today but her prognosis
seems guarded.  If the eyeball stays full of blood it could cause the
retina to detach causing blindness in that eye.  If the eye dies, it
may have to come out.  I am sick sick sick over this.  Ive cried off
and on since it happened and am crying now.  She has to be so sad and
confused without me.  I dont work and we are always together.  IF
they let her come home, she cannot jump or play for a week at least! 
She is a 7 month old puppy!!  I know they would kind of like to keep
her, but I want her home!  Im not a dummy.  I went to school and was
a vet tech for about 2 years in my younger days.  She's 4 pounds and
a lap dog.  I really think I could hold her most of the day.  When I
couldnt hold her I could kennel her.  She's never kenneled, but I do
have one, and I think she would be happier kenneled here than at the
vet's.  What do I do????  =(

Sorry sooo long.

Katie
