When Bridget was spayed she had 9 baby teeth removed. I was so impressed at how quickly she seemed to recover. When I brought her home she of course was starving - so I gave her small amounts of "wet" food thinking her mouth would be sore. Well she walked right over and started eating the cats hard food. She did have a full set of adult teeth on top already in so that may make a difference. She was chewing on her chew toys immediately. She really never missed a beat.
Good luck - I know how nerve wrecking it can be - but she'll be fine...she'll pull through this better than you!
Sending prayers your way for her speedy recovery - she'll be back to her norm in no time - and the hard part will be trying to keep her calm for the next few days.
Let us know when you get the long awaited good news that she is out of surgery and doing great! |
