My little sweet Libby is home! I feel so bad for her. She looks so ragged and smells kinda stinky. I bet she pooped in her cage. When they were going to bring her out, the lady said they were cleaning her up, and I suppose they didn't clean her up too well because little Libby has never smelled this bad. I'm going to take a washcloth with a tiny bit of shampoo on it and just give her a sponge type bath...but not until she's feeling better. She cries if I pick her up, so I'm just leaving her in her little bed. I couldn't get her to show any interest in water, but Patti called and suggested I try an ice cube and it worked! She started licking on it. I just gave her some tiny bits of lamb & rice roll and she ate it and wanted more, but I'll wait to see that she doesn't throw up and can give her more in an hour or two. I'm so glad it's over and I know tomorrow will be better. She almost acted mad at me, but I think it's just that she feels so tough. She has pain meds so that will help.
Thanks everyone...for being such a great support to me! I appreciate it more than words can say! Libby says to thank you all too.
Oh...one more thing...Maddie acts scared of Libby...she will only get so close and then back up and do her donkey kick. Weird little Maddie! |
