My little Yorkie went in last Friday to get spade and microchipped. The surgury went fine and the vet did a great job. However there are a couple of things that concern me.

1. Is that she is not eating anything and drinking small amounts of water. 2. She is acting like she is scared.

They have her on Rimadyl for the pain. However I think this might be what is making her act the way she is. Also they sent her home with one of those cones to wear. Does anyone know how long she should wear it? The nurse at the vet told us 10-15 days. She hates the thing and won't even move when it is on.

Any information or advice anyone can share would be great!! Thank You.
