I just got back from taking my 3 month old to the vet....she was with me this morning and had ran off to the other room, when I found her she had chewed thru an electrical cord!! I am so ashamed of myself that I didn't tape them up or something!! She was just laying there with her mouth around the cord and I unplugged it and grabbed her up....I just kept pushing softly on her heart as it was still beating. I was absolutely hysterical calling phone numbers and trying to get ahold of my husband and the vet...finally I just threw my clothes on and jumped in the car and rushed to the vet, a 20 minute drive. By the time I got there she was coming to and had crawled up on my shoulder like she does. I checked her mouth and her tongue was burned. My husband met me there and one of the vet assistants showed up we rushed her in they say she should be okay, she is staying there today and starting on antibiotics. I AM SO ASHAMED OF MYSELF!!!! Today is devoted to taking care of all electrical cords. She truly is a family member and unfortunately I have learned a very valuable lesson!!! I just can't quit crying!!! |
