Silly Humans, eh Jabby? I phoned the vet clinic and they said not to worry about the icing, so we're letting the anti-inflamatory do it's job. She still has some swelling but it seems a little less each day. And the incisions look like they're knitting together. She only seems to get out of her bed to go pee, about once a day and then it's a flood, for a Chihuahua anyway. And she's only had one bowel movement since her surgery. I'm trying to not be too concerned about it as she hasn't been eating her normal volume. Even before the surgery some days she ate more than other days so I'll let her decide when she's hungry. I set her in the bottom half of her crate with blankets and we sat outside for maybe an hour today, but then it clouded up so we came inside. I thought the fresh air and change of scenery would do her good. She even got to bark at a couple people walking by, lol. I'm trying to decide if now is the time to cut back on the pain medication. It's been about 5 days now post-op and she sleeps/rests a lot, which is good for the healing process. We're seeing the Vet on Monday, so maybe I should just keep on this schedule and let her decide then?! Thanks to everyone who replies, it's great to have the support! ------------------------------------ " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends! Join today! " Yahoo! Groups Links
