Default Post op day 6

Yesterday was another day of only eating one small meal and no poop again. She slept well last night. This morning she got up and had some extra lean ground turkey burger with cheese and rice, had her pain pills in some cheese and went back to bed. Still no poop. She is drinking a bit better, she likes ice cold water from the cooler but won't but rarely drink from her water bottle. I hope I am not spoiling her too much. If there is no poop by this afternoon, I am calling the vet. She has only had one good poop and one small one since she got home. I am cutting back her pain meds again today, will try to go 10-12 hours and see if that helps. She won't eat pumpkin I am sure so I can't try that. I will try to get her to eat some high fiber toast when I eat breakfast. Anyone got any other suggestions? I'm sure its a combo of not eating much, no activity and narcotics, but I still worry. Overall, she seems comfortable but like any post op patient she gets tired easily and sleeps a lot. That's the update for today.
