Oh no, poor girl :cry: Glad she's got Dash looking after her. Hope she bounces back quickly and is home tomorrow. Sending lots of vibes for Beauty xx
 
Hi, Bev has spoken to a nurse at the vets, Beauty has not eaten or passed anything overnight, she has managed to keep the drip in so it’s a good sign.
In the next hour she will be seen by another vet so we can have a second opinion and to see if she will have a x-ray.
She has not lost any weight between her last visit to the vets, so we have caught it early.

i am writing this and i don't no what to do.
we have been told beauty has a large blockage it look like the blockage she has had 8 weeks ago has not gone and she has bad gas in her stomick.
she can have a operation but only has a 50/50 chance of making it.

i dont no what this will do to dash as he is so bonded to beauty.

bev is on her way home now.

Oh no :cry: I know there are buns on here who have had surgery on blockages successfully. Does the vet recommend surgery? I hope someone else can advise xx
 
the vet has said she is really poorly and we need to make a decision to have the operation or the alterantive which I cant even type.
We really dont know what to do we are going up to the vets now to see what they say.
Please send lots and lots of vibes for beauty as she really needs them now.
 
Oh, I thought the alternative would be to carry on with fluid therapy, I didn't think :cry: I think I would give the surgery a chance, but you and the vet will know how she'd cope with that. I'm so sorry :cry: Sending lots more vibes for Beauty xx
 
i am sorry to say we have lost beauty.

from getting the call to us getting to the vets, she got worse.
i dont no how to finish this but i miss her so mutch.

I am so very, very sorry that Beauty didn't make it, and I know nothing can be said that will help at all, but she was very lucky to have had such a fantastic life with you and Dash and to have been loved so very much. You need to give yourself time to grieve and just take one day at a time. We are all thinking of you :cry:
