Maggy May, I Don't Understand!!

[Patti]

I am so sorry she is not feeling well. I would be concerned that she has an infection if she keeps up with the diahrrea and vomiting. Are there any ER 24 hour vets you could call and just ask if this is something to worry about 6 days post spay. Hoping she feels better tomorrow. I feel so bad for you.

Well I would have already done that, but from prior occasions, I know that the ER vet won't give any info over the phone. I've tried before and they won't tell me anything, just, "you'll have to bring them in." Well, so far she's kept the rice and chicken down and she drank a lil more water on her own. If she had any sort of infection from her spay, wouldn't it be showing signs on the outside of her incision as well? it looks good, no redness or swelling.

Poor Maggy May what's wong with you little punkin?? You know Tracy, I wondered about the stress factor too. With all your family has gone thorugh the past week and her spay maybe the stress could be too much for her and this is how she is reacting. Maybe she is sensing things. I really don't know?? If I didn't have my sons kindergarten physical tomorrow and needing to go see my Dad, I would offer to come up and sit with her during Kenny's funeral for you.
I hope you get everything figured out with Maggy, I'm ready to hear about her getting back to her regular self again
You know my pm too if you need to talk :

Awe Erin, you're so sweet ((((Erin)))) That's very kind of you and I appreciate the thought. I'm thinking if all else fails and she isn't feeling better by morning, I'll see if the vet can keep her while I go to the funeral, it's worth a shot and she'd be in a good place should she start getting sick again. She's not had the runs anymore and hasn't vomited, she's still keeping the chicken with rice down so that's a good sign. I know when I'm stressed, I get the runs myself, so maybe it is possible for our furkids as well. I know she can sense there's something not right, and then her being confined to her kennel isn't making it any easier on her either, well not in the sense that she wants to be right with me. It's good for her to get rest and let her incision and insides heal though. This lil girl has worried me more in the short time we've had her then all three of our other big furkids put together in the whole time we've had them!

Sending lots of prayers and healing thoughts your way for your family and Maggy May. Hopefully you can get some much needed rest soon.

Well, I took Maggys temp and it's normal, it's 100.5 so I don't think she's got any sort of infection. She's not had the runs or puked anymore either, hopefully she'll continue to improve.

Thank you Maya, those are pretty special hugs cause so far, Maggy May hasn't gotten sick or had the runs anymore. She kept the chicken and rice down that I gave her and has drank water on her own as well. Waiting for her to go potty this AM to see how it is but so far, things are looking promising. Thank you all so much for all the prayers, God must be hearing them and answering them cause so far she's doing really good!!

Tracy~ I hope Maggy's feeling better each day and that you were able to get to the funeral.
Sometimes it's a combination of the anesthesia and the pain meds that slows down the bowel and it takes awhile of activity and regular food to get them back on track. Also, my vet told me that if they're tolerating food, to let them eat a decent amount (meaning, don't limit it to several small meals) of food so that they had some bulk in the intestines to form stool instead of just small amounts that sort of dribbles thru. I was worried about the same thing after Max's neuter and sure enough, he finally did have a normal formed BM. I'm sure, along with feeling the sadness there recently that it's got her feeling a little unsure of what's going on so that probably just contributes to it.

I'm sure she's gonna be A-OK in a few days.

Take care of yourself and your hubby and I hope Maggy's better as I type this!

I hope she's gonna be alright. I suppose it could be the stress of the change in her routine and being confined. I don't really know. I'm praying for her and you all, too.

I am praying for Maggie May and you also
