You should have been given some feeding instructions when you checked out. Offer her a small amount of her normal food at first. If she eats and keeps it down, you can offer her some more later. If she won't eat, you might want to try something to entice her that's easy on her stomach like some boiled chicken and rice. Make sure she is drinking and urinating. I ended up using a syringe to get Scarlett to take some fluids at first, because she had zero interest.

If you have any concerns, don't hesitate to call your vet back.


This is exactly what I did. Hand fed chicken and rice, water through a syringe. Just sit with her and watch movies so she stays still and rests.
