Today will be a hard day for my sweet little fluff. I feel so bad for her that she'll be so scared and i can't do anything to make it all better for her. I know it has to be done but i hate making this sweet trusting little girl have such a horrible day. I just love her so much and wish i could spare her the pain. Sniff...
You can try some Bach's Rescue Remedy.... our vet has me giving it to Grace now, but will continue after surgery.... It will help mellow her out a bit.
I hope Grace's incision is that small!
Good girl Ivy!
You could try carrying her around... Let her see things since she can't really do much.
I'm glad to hear that Ivy is finally home and seem to have gone thru the whole procedure well! Sorry to hear that she had to threw up. It is also great to hear when you have a caring and understanding Vet which allow you to be with Ivy's to comfort her during tough time. We'll be praying for Ivy to have a speedy recovery!
Just be careful about her licking her incision---even w/no external stitches. My vet said Lisi should not lick here. Lisi was allergic to the internal stitches (she is allergic to lots of stuff) and had to wear a collar. Because it is surgical glue on the outside to close the incision lots of wetness should be prevented.
Glad all went well. It's so funny how we all worry so much about the surgery itself and then the biggest challenge is trying to keep them quiet and not that active afterwards. :HistericalSmiley:
