Ruby went to the vet today for constipation, she was sedated (they were short on techs so my vet (who I love!) let me help (I work at a different vet clinic and he knows I'm considering tech school)) and my vet fixed her up super fast (won't go in to messy details).
She's sleeping upstairs now, he let me take her home to recover.
Her dental has been pushed back a week and she's been prescribed Enulose which is like a liquid fiber. Has anyone used this before? I did a little reading online and it seems to be safe and everything, I'm just worried that she won't drink enough.
I have three fountains and she seems a little freaked out by them all. He also shaved a few of her matts (she wont let me clip them and will be getting a shave when she's sedated for her dental) so she looks like she has mange or something
He called them "racing stripes" since he shaved the big matts on her sides and he also gave her a sanitary shave.
Anyhow, I'm pretty darn happy that Ruby should be able to go poo now (won't feel totally better until I actually find a deposit in the litter box) and thrilled that I have a vet that I trust who's so cool
I just had to share!
Oh, I was sort of complaining about how my animals are never all healthy at the same time, he actually said I have too many (in a joking way)
He said they're like kids, there's always something wrong with one of them.
