She's doesn't seem to be in any pain but she still has pain meds in her system. I have pain meds for the next 4 days too. I'm a little worried but I think she's doing ok.

I asked the vet about her baby teeth and he wants to wait a couple months to see if any fall out before removing any. Hopefully they all fall out on their own.
Gracie Ruth was pretty sleepy and clingy the first day after and then she was full steam ahead. She didn't need any pain meds. I'm sure she'll do fine with a little time and rest. Let us know how she's doing.

Stella is going in for her spay next Tuesday so I'm pretty nervous, especially since she's been teething so much lately and she hasn't been eating much because her mouth hurts, so I definitely know how you feel!
Gracie slowed down on eating during her teething too. What I did was to crack her kibble so that it was tiny little pieces that she didn't have to chew at all. You could also just add a little water to soften them for her. She needs to eat and keep her strength up as much as possible before her surgery.
