We don't know what to do tomorrow. We will have to leave her at home again. I am going to tell work that I need to stay home Friday to take care of her, but I have important meetings all day tomorrow. I feel like I'm stuck. I wish more than ever that none of this had to happen to Layla.
I emptied her bladder at 5, and Scott picked her up at 7 and again she was squirting all over the floor. I put her in the shower to wash her off and she was so thirsty she was drinking the water coming off her in the shower. I just don't think this food can work out for us if it's changing her this much, but there's nothing else to do!
We need to talk to the vet so badly and I am getting really angry that she just will not call us back!!!! I have been crying almost all evening. I just can't hold myself together. |
Lindsey, the food is not doing this to her. My guess about the urine squirting is that she may still have a UTI. Gabby leaks urine whenever she has one. Not sure about the thirst...have they checked her labs recently? Does she have any kidney issues?
I am so so sorry this is so difficult for you.
I am praying for all of you. I know how stressful it is for me some days and I don't have a job. I cannot imagine how you must feel. Just wish I had an answer for you.
You are a very strong young lady...you can hold yourself together! It is perfectly normal to be upset and crying right now. This is a very trying time for you....but it will pass! I wish I knew what to say about the vet. Can you just take Layla there in the morning before you go to work? I would probably leave her there for the day and let them figure it out...and express her!
