I have to give her at home cerenia for nausea, sucralfate and pepcid. She is also to eat a bland diet of chicken and white rice with yogurt or cottage cheese or Canned ID from Hills Science Diet. I purchased a can and she ate about 1/4 cup. I am also making the boiled chicken and rice now.
She was also given a test for Pancreatitis which came back negative. The vet was kind of enough to test her for free. She also had blood work done at the emergency hospital which came back looking fine.
She has had a hell of a week! Baby Chan has not gotten up from her bed since we got home. Exhausted I'm sure!
I appreciate all these replies which in my moments of total fear and devastation keep me thinking of what I need to do! And just hearing things from you guys, when I go to the vet I can suggest things I have read here that are strong possibilities! And I can seem like I know what I am talking about : ) |
I'm glad you were able to take Baby Chan home and that she is on the road to recovery. I think it is a good idea to rest her system a bit using the chicken and rice or Hill's until she is back to her old self. I hope she continues to improve and I'll be looking for your updates.
