I just went through the same thing with Ceci... She's 3.75 pounds. Came through like a trooper. I paid extra for a different anesthesia that wuld let her recover more quickly and brought her home the same day... She mostly slept that first day and was sore. Gave her pain meds and antibiotic and she did well... Still, it was a huge strain for me.

Charlotte is 4 pounds now...tall, beautiful and such a character...Of course her size makes me worry... I'll feed her up to 10:00 tonight...and she'll be at the vet by 6:00 a.m.tomorrow (so she doesn't have to stick around while the others are eating and not be allowed to eat-I'll feed the crew when I get back from dropping her off)...Her surgery will most likely be by 10:00 - so I'm worried about her glucose, worried about her being at the vet (she's very sensitive and hates being there), she'll carry on and be so upset that I left her. Gotta keep busy tomorrow...so I don't dwell things (what am I talking about - I'll dwell no matter how busy I am). Then...that 7-10 days of healing...is going to be impossible to keep the turbo Chihuahua quiet...she's like the energizer bunny with an extra battery pack! Praying all goes well... Lynda
