UTI help appreciated for Treacle Update 6/5/19

Vets just rang, she has been on an IV drip all day, they have been syringe feeding her, but is now nibbling on hay and hopping around. They are happy for her to come home later. Apparently she now holds the record for nibbling through an IV line the quickest, they had to put a little buster collar on her ! We're not out of the woods yet, but she'd been peeing ok these last couple of days, so not really sure what caused today's episode. To be honest I'm not 100% sure she has been getting the full amount of abx from the syringe when I've done it, as her chest fur has been wet.
Thank you so much everyone for your good wishes and vibes, me and Treacle really appreciate them xxxx
 
Great news, bless her chewing through the IV line! I hope she continues to improve once she’s home x
 
Ah - that's a positive update and I'm sure Treacle will be so pleased to be back home with you in her familar surroundings. I'm sure she will continue to improve from the love and warmth that you will be giving her. Sending more vibes for Treacle and a hug for you. x
 
I'm so sorry to read that Treacle has had a set back. But I'm pleased that she is now a bit brighter and can come home later today. xx

We're home ! She's like a different bun from this morning, really bouncy, not sure what caused the problem this morning, I honestly thought that was it !
Thank you once again, you lovely people for being so caring xxx
 
I’m so pleased to hear that she’s home and looking so well. I hope you can all get a good nights sleep tonight. Sending lots of continuing to feel better vibes x
