This indoor enclosure is PERFECT for Ruby!!! She needs to be restricted for the next two weeks, limited mobility. She is resting comfortably now inside her safe place!! So grateful my friend sent it to me to use. Much better to have her out in the living room with all of us instead of in her tiny “rest room” I had for her. I had to open it all the way up take her inside of it on the leash, then I locked it up. I think she will do well in here for the next 24 hrs. Minus getting out to potty.
Ruby short
home from hospital day 27 post op.
about Ruby tomorrow
I called the hometown Vet that we use and asked if I could bring her in tomorrow to help take the wrap off, they said yes. She has an appt at 230 for this. I’m off work the next two days to be with her.
Ruby the complicated one
Ruby is in a lot of pain. Yelping out at times. She is resting on the couch, but my friend sent an enclosure home so I set it up in the living room and I will put her in there when I go to work. I had to pay for the antibiotic for a few doses and her Vet will mail me more today from her office. Clavamox still. And tramadol for pain, again. I already have some here at home, so I didn’t buy the pain meds. They did charge me for the couple doses of antibiotics. Ruby has a wrap on. looks like shiny brand new staples underneath. I can see the bottom part of the incision. She get the wrap off tomorrow. I either take her back to this other animal hospital and they will help or they said I could do it. Regardless I will go to one of the Vets we know and have them help with it. I hate that she is in pain. She can not sit or lay on the stump without yelping out loud. I wasn’t able to make it there early enough to talk with the Vet after the surgery. She left me a voicemail on the phone. Staples will remain for two weeks. smh.
Ruby another surgery
Ruby is back in surgery tonight. To cut her open and redo the incision line. It did not heal like the Vet wanted for it to heal. So sad that she is having to go thru this. Worried for her life, again. Last time she almost died because of being an unexpected heavy bleeder. I was so excited all day thinking that she would finally be free of those staples, but my hopes and dreams were crushed when the Vet said that she wanted to redo it. 🙁 Please put positive thoughts towards Ruby making it thru this. 🙁
