A wee update.....
The abscess was caused by elongated tooth roots The vet never took her tooth out at this stage as she has three roots that look suspicious and she thought we should concentrate on getting rid of the infection for now. The vet stitched the abscess open, so I can get in to clean it. There was LOADS of cream cheesy bloody pus when I got her home yesterday, but when I cleaned it again at night and this morning there was only tiny bits. I am thinking that the vet just never got it all out to begin with.
I don't know what the prognosis is for the future. I am gutted for her and me.
She is still not eating. I have had to come to work as I was off yesterday.....and to top it all off it is my 40th Birthday today - how great!
No, she just has Metacam. I gave her it this morning.
I tried to give her syringe recovery and mushed up pellets but she just spat most of it out. Probably got a wee bit in, but not much.
I am at work but Chris was in trying to feed her just there and she wouldn't take anything, so I told him to go out and pick dandelions and cut them up into wee bits, he said that when he went back into the room she was eating the 'hay' bowl that I left out for her. (Consisted of the wee bitty bits of hay at the bottom of the bag). So hopefully she is eating that. I have left out loads of things for her, Herbie is loving it, he is like a kid at Christmas eating all of the stuff.
She is eating more now, still not her 100% self, but deffo better than she was last night, she has the vets at 9am, so will ask for extra meds if she is not better in the morning.
