My Zoe is 1 year and 3 months old and she weighed 2.8 lbs last Friday when she was spayed. She is very healthy. She is doing great following her surgery. We have a very good vet. They did blood work days prior to her spaying & had her on an IV. They did say her temperature dropped a little during surgery so they had her on a heating pad for a while in recovery. She has a very tiny, neat incision and the next day was acting like nothing happened. I was worried sick and put off the procedure letting her go through one heat before getting up the courage to have her given general anesthesia. She was spayed, teeth cleaned, and microchipped.
We have had no problems with her at all. She can't jump on the couch, and never will, it's just too high. She did surprize is and learn to climb the stairs and ours are hardwood, not carpeted. This really freaked me out at first, and I put baby gates at the bottoms, but she has lost her facination with the stairs so I took the gates down.
I bought her hoping for a 4 lb adult weight, but wouldn't change a thing. We love her just the way she is. Her size is one of the things that makes her so unique. I'm a small person, and she fits on my lap just right. All our furbabies are wonderful, but there is just something about a tiny. |
