Today she is more herself, but still tired and moving slowly.
Couple questions for those that have been through this:
1) How do you know if they are in pain? She is not crying and seems to be fine. They told me to give her pain medicine before going to bed last night, which I did. And then once a day as needed. So far I haven't given it to her today. Do you think she is in pain?
2) How long should I keep her in a onsie? Last night I took it off and put the e-collar on her, so incase she needed to go potty (she sleeps in the kitchen and uses a potty pad during the night and when we are gone).
Thanks! |
You'll see her wince, if she's in pain. I had a onesie for mine, but I never needed to put it on her. Her stitches were inside and I just watched her and she never bothered them. You can try leaving it off and watch her if you can.
I'm glad she's ok. I started to say, "What do you mean? I did cry when I left her and Muffin both."
