Glad to hear she's quieted down some and is a little more comfortable.
Did you try chopped up boiled chicken or maybe turkey if you have that? It's important to get them to eat to keep their energy up and help them not get sick from the pain meds.
I wouldn't worry too much if you can't get her to eat tonight, but she should definitely be hungry tomorrow...I'm sure she'll probably eat some chicken and white rice for you in the morning if you offer it to her. I know sometimes when I give Stella ice water it encourages her to drink more, and she likes to play with/lick the ice. Did she have any teeth extracted during her surgery? Ice might help make her mouth feel better so she can eat if she did.
I hate when they don't eat too, they're so little that it's definitely noticeable when they don't, like you said! |
