I just set up an appointment for the feeding tube for Stubby. She's going to see the vet at 8:40 AM this coming Friday.
Stubby allowed me to force feed her 5 times yesterday. By the time I got to the 4th feeding, Stubby was very stressed out. She coughed up bile and food when I tried to wrap her in the feeding blanket. These force feedings are just torture for Stubby and it's making things worse.
I told the doctor that the longer we wait, the riskier this operation is going to be for Stubby. This time he didn't argue about it.
Stubby is going to get one of those funnel shaped collars for her neck.
I wish that the doctor had done the operation when I took Stubby in on Monday. The techs at the office said that they've done a lot of feeding tube surgeries so that's one good thing.
