| They usually tell you not to give them anything for a few hours after you get her home because sometimes the anesthesia makes them nauseus. I gave mine a little water. They really weren't interested in eating. They just were so groggy and slept. By the morning they were their old perky self. Good luck and we hope she is up and around soon. They are so pityful when they are like this. She will be fine. Sending big get well hugs from Coco, Pebbles and Trixie.

| It probably varies. Mine said give 1/4 of the food she regularly gets. So, she get's 1/4cp each serving... so I only gave 1/4 of that. And just to watch her water intake and make sure she doesn't drink too much. I picked her up at 4 and she nibbled a few pieces of food and I gave her about a teaspoon of wet food. She was back to normally eating probably on the second day.

| I actually did the same thing. I brought the food over to her little bed and put some on my finger so she could lick it off. I gave about 1-2 teaspoons full. Yes just a little water, Just to wet the dry whistle, if you know what I mean.
