In the mornings I usually give Brandi a half of can and put the other half in the refrigerator. Yesterday when i got home from work I noticed the other half of still on the kitchen counter. I forgot to put it in the refrigerator. I had every intention of throwing it away when the phone rang and completely forgot about throwing away the spoiled food. While still on the phone and not paying attention, I went ahead and feed her the spoiled food. Just that fast I got distracted and forgot to throw away the spoiled can and feed her a new can.
Well about 30 minutes later, I noticed Brandi doing what I call her "mommy I'm sick dance", she starts pacing non stop and will lick anything and everything excessively. That's how I know when there is something wrong. I suddenly remember about the food and knew that it was the spoiled food that was the problem. I took her outside hoping that it was working through her system and she had to let it out. But instead she went straight for the grass. Whenever Brandi has an upset stomach she will eat grass. It's the only time she does it. About 10 minutes later, she started vomiting. I didn't panicked because I figured she was trying to get the bad food out of her system. The emergency vet and poison control numbers are on speed dial. After vomiting a couple of more times and a good poop she started to settled down.
She's fine now and was back to herself this morning. She has been drinking plenty of water and her little tail is just a wagging away. I only gave her a teaspoon to eat this morning and she gobbled that up. I felt so bad for her that instead of doing my normal bedtime routine I just put her in bed with her blanket petting her and watching her to make sure she was okay. I must of apologized to her a thousand times. She still loves me....even though I gave her food poison
. I absolutely hate it when my furbabies are in any kind of pain or discomfort especially because of something I did or didn't do.
