 OMG! Zoey ate a mouse What Now?
Zoey (9 mos) went out this morning and I left her in the back yard for about 10 minutes. When I went out to check on her she did not come. I called and called and looked all over the yard - even in the pond. We have coyotes all over the open space behind our house. We have "coyote rollers" which prevent the things from jumping into our yard but Zoey is so little I thought she might have slipped between the wrought iron and the stucco wall. I climbed over and callled and called her. For some reason I looked back into our yard and there she was. When I got back into the yard she came over and barked at me and ran like a crazy little thing. Then I saw a tail hanging out of her mouth. YUCK! She must have been hiding in the bushes eating that thing. All that was left was a patch of hair and the tail. She came running into the house but would not let me near her. I finally caught her and locked her in her kennel.
What will happen next? We she throw up? Should I call the vet?
Any ideas are welcomed.
