we've been doing once a day and about 2/3 cup, but i'm not sure if this is the best way or not. what do you do? do you even control how much they eat? do you just keep their bowl filled? or do you keep a measured amount in there?
yes, i do too, but i actually paid for it. by the time i got there, i just didn't feel like yelling about it anymore. i have had an extremely tough week at work to top all of this off, so by yesterday evening, i just wanted to be done with the stress and take her home.
well, ellie is back home! she seems to be doing just fine. she's laying out side our office right now, just chillin and right now she doesn't seem to be in any pain, but she is on pain meds.
and i feel much better after talking to the vet when i picked her up. he said if they had reached me...
yes, i did have my cell phone with me at school, but i didn't have it with me at all times. i guess i was just stupid and didn't think there would be any problems...they told me she would be in surgery around noon and to call around 2:00. so i did.
and, to defend the vets a bit, she did inform...
yeah, she's pretty little so i'm guessing just a small litter. but actually i don't want to think about that now because actually thinking about the kittens makes me sad!
and you're right, there are too many kitties out there already. and that's why we wanted to spay. i just didn't realize i'd...
they said that she was so tense before hand that they couldn't tell. it wasn't until the gave her the anesthetic she relaxed and then they could feel them. and they did try to contact me, i just couldn't use my phone at that point.
i know i said i was done, but i wanted to thank you for this comment.
i didn't feel i was overreacting. i came on here for support for this tough issue i was having and having someone tell me that they hope my cat recovers from her amputations is not what i call support. i didn't realize it was...
she got pregnant because she was a barn cat and we took her home to be an indoor cat.
and thanks to that last comment, i will be not be posting here anymore. thanks.
well, they had my okay to use anethetic because i didn't know she was pregnant! so technically they had my persmission for that part. it's just the spaying part that really upsets me.
and i guess i will no longer be commenting on my cat's claws here.
yeah, that's really what i'm trying to think about. and what's actually making me feel better. the fact that i really don't know if i would have wanted to make that decision. at least this way, we still get to keep her and she's all taken care of.
but i may dispute the extra money they are...
i did not get to see my phone until after school today and i see NINE missed calls from the hospital and THREE Voicemails. so i am freaking out. i immediately think she died or something close to it.
so i listen to the voicemails. they say, we checked her out and she's 40 days pregnant. and i...
yeah, we did for a bit and she stopped...for a bit. i tried picking her up and she stopped then too but then she didn't want to stay put. so i put her down and then she started meowing again!
i am so not used to a talkative cat. harry hardly says a word. ellie will not shut up!! and it's just the same meow over and over and over...such a whiny sound. i can't take it!!!!
i really do love her, but she's driving me crazy!!
she's doing pretty good, but yeah, i definitely wanted her to know where to go! She's been using it all day now. and we had her out of there for a couple hours with no accidents. so i think she's finally getting the hang of it!
