Blossom was spayed yesterday (tuesday) and is doing great. Her appetite was compramised after but has been nibbling things happily. She eats a little of her pellets, some herbs but mostly red grapes. Because she eats the red grapes happily I feed her a few of these a day just to make sure she is eating as it is hard to keep an eye on her feeding when I'm at work (for obvious reasons) but I don't feed her too much as I dont want her tummy being effected badly. She wont touch hay at all. Strangely enough Thumper is doing the exact same as her, not eating much but he didn't have an operation, just went with her. They're both quite stressed and aren't very trusting around me right now, so trying to check Blossoms wound and giving her some Metacam is proving extremely stressful for her. She is very energetic and seems to be happy as anything, only thing that has changed since the op is her trust in me and her appetite. Should I stress her so she can have her meds or just leave her to it so she can really settle. She had her meds today but I'm planning not to give her them tomorrow. what are your views?
