Jen has an obstructed intestine! Please say a prayer for her. Our dear little Jen ate something that is causing a blockage in her intestine. I feel just awful! She started to throw up yesterday and had a little diaherra so we kept a very close eye on her. She thew up some more this moring so we rushed her to the vet to make sure she stayed hyderated and next thing I know the doc says he can feel something in her so she got an x-ray. The x-ray showed abnormal gas pockets in her so she stayed all day. When I picked her up her leg was bandaged up to keep the catheter in and they put a EB collar on her so she was a cone head. Poor baby has to go back tomorrow for another x-ray to see if she is going to poop out what's in her and back on IV to make sure she stays hyderated. I pray she can poop it out... what in the world could she have eaten? As soon as Dan gets home we are going to check all the toys for holes or missing thread and stuff. |
Poor little thing. Did any of her toys have those plastic eyes? I can't give mine those kind because that's the first thing they chew off. I do hope she passes it and not have to have it surgically removed. |
Me too I hope she can pass it naturally. We checked the toys and there was a lot of hair on them - my hair! No missing eyes or noses. Couple with the stuffing coming out - those are gone. |
I'll keep Jen in my thoughts. Eddie used to eat absolutely EVERYTHING, from sticks to greenies to plastic toys. It was just pure luck that he outgrew that stage without getting sick. I'm sure she's gonna be fine. Please let us know! |
Poor baby! Will be praying that she is better today. We were blessed that Toto has never been a chewer because I am mortified that she will swallow something that won't pass!! ;) |
Prayers going out for Jen. Is she still eating at all? I pray that whatever it is can pass on it's own, but if the vet could feel it, it might be better for him to go ahead and get in there and get it out. Whatever it is must be pretty large:eek: I'd hate to see her get progressively weaker over the next few days and THEN have surgery. That's what happened to Starr:( Don't hesitate to get second opinion on the situation, either. God, I pray that Jen can just poop this thing out this morning! |
Oh, poor little Jenie. We'll be sending lots of hugs, kisses and prayers her way (yours, too). Please keep us posted. |
Awww I hope she can poop it out. Poor baby. She's in my prayers. |
How is she this morning.. poor baby I hope everything is alright soon! |
Oh gosh, I hope she can pass whatever is in her safely without the need for surgery. We'll be praying and thinking of her! |
oh no !!!! I'm so glad you caught this in time and will be praying for her....this will sound funny - but PRAYING FOR POOPS !!! |
I am so sorry for little Jen. I hope, whatever it is, comes out naturally. Buddy is a chewer of everything. He threw up a corner of something plastic Sun morning the size of a nickel! Last month it was a spider leg from a Xmas toy that lay in his intestine for 2 days before that came up. I never see him get these things. Hopefully she will get it up today or pass it. Buddy is three and still looking for things to swollow. Hugs to Jen from Buddy. Carol & Buddy |
Praying for Jen. Cali had what they thought was an intestinal obstruction but on the second xray taken 12 hours later it looked better but I still had the surgery done as she needed to be spayed and a liver biopsy done so since she was already at the er vet the surgeon did it all. It turned out that she didn't have one so hopefully Jen's will turn out to be just gas as well. |
oh poor baby, praying it will come out on its own ! |
Prayers going out for Jen . |
Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts. Jen thew up 7 times last night and had some diaherra. She's back at the vet this morning and back on fluids. This mornings x-ray showed the blockage moved some. She wanted to eat but the doc said no food for now - I couldn't stand it so I cheated which probably didn't help. They tested her for Parvo - NEGATIVE - thank goodness! But if she doesn't improve, we are looking at surgery... I will know more later today and will keep you all updated. |
I was hoping she would pass whatever is blocked. She still may, God willing. Good luck and prayer's coming for Jenie. I can imagine the concern you are feeling at this time. Take care and keep us updated. Carol & Buddy |
OMG how scary! Ihope she get is out and feels better soon! |

oh my goodness, somehow our little munchkins don't realize that they can get in deep trouble with their chewing habits. I hope Jen does poop it out. At least the vet and you are on top of this. . . I am sure the ordeal will be over soon. In the meantime, my babies are sending slurppy kisses while you are trying to ge through this. :( |
I am so terriby sorry..........will be praying! |
I hope your little baby is doing better! :ghug: I am keeping you all in my prayers! |
Oh.... I hope she passes whatever is in there. Best Wishes and prayers for a full quick recovery without surgery needed. :hands: I sometimes call my Rudy an ant eater. He has his nose to the ground ALL the time and I just pray that he doesn't get into anything also. Take Care.... both of you. Rudys Mom (Dawn):animal-pa |
Oh, that's indeed good news that the obstruction has moved!!!:thumbup: Go sweetie, GO! I hope that it passes painlessley for her, poor darling:( Continued prayers:hands: |
oh poor little Jen :( It's moving and that's good news, I hope she can pass it naturally! Big kisses to all of you~ |
Any news? |
aw poor Jen. Sorry to hear your going thru this. Have then done a barium series on her to see if something is totally blocking the intestines? they will also be able to see more clearly if tha tsomething is moving along better and where it gets stuck. Also, if they dont' do surgery today or tonight and you get to take her home again, listen to your vet and don't feed her. If she doesn't pass this thing then they definately will need to do surgery and if you've fed her then she'll have problems with going under anesthesia. i hope she passes it on her own. |
Oh bless her little heart...Sending prayers & hugs Jen's way...Its moving thats a good sign...so praying she passes it herself.... |
Sending hugs your way...thinking of you and Jen. |
Your poor little girl! I'm so sorry you're going such an ordeal. Make sure not to feed her bc it will only add to the problem. (we had a scare with Harley eating his plastic microchip tag and I felt so bad for not letting him eat but apparently it just builds up in their belly/intestines and just makes things worse :( ) I really hope she passes it soon. She is definately in my prayers. And please don't feel guilty or blame yourself.. we all do our best for our fuzzies but things like this happen. They just can't figure out that eating things other than kibbles and treats is not good! Hope for an update soon!:animal-pa |
Doc gave her barium (sp?) and he says it's moving through her system smoothly so far. I'll know more in about an hour and will keep you updated. Good new - no more throw-up but no poop yet... |
