Brekke has been hospitalized since 8 pm...

Brekkesmom · August 28, 2007, 01:53:41 PM

last night, and we could sure use some rays. She was bleeding and I didn't know where it originated. I put her on my lap to drive downtown, and she bled all over my lap - got her in asap to emergency. Blood panels and x-rays - overnight stay with ivs - picked her up this morning and she is at her regular vet. They'll feed her in an hour and I can check back at 4. We sure could use some rays...

Julia, I have had you and Brekke on my mind since you told me this morning. Frida and Willy are sending lots of prayers and rays too. You left before I had the chance to send you more super special rays. Call me or email me if there is anything you need.

Brekkesmom · August 28, 2007, 07:18:36 PM

Well, I went to feed her at 5, and they said if she ate with no diarrhea, I could take her home. She REFUSED to eat more than a 1/16 of a teaspoon, and when I tried to get her to eat a bit more, she let loose a flood of blood,

so, I cleaned myself up, the tech cleaned the floor, and she stays overnight at least! :confused:

Oh, treat box 4C is ready to go, but I haven't made it to the post office for obvious reasons... and did I mention that Rick has been to the emergency room 3 of the last 6 days, and now Brekke?

Mike · August 28, 2007, 07:29:43 PM

Yikes, mega rays coming for Julia in the midst of all this...

mrsmartinez · August 28, 2007, 07:52:38 PM

Does the vet know what was causing the bloody stool? Was she still curious and alert when you saw her?

David C. · August 28, 2007, 08:04:44 PM

Sounds like hemhorragic gatroenteritis. The vet is probably the best place for her right now. It can be very nasty if left untreated. Max-angel suffered a bout of this when he was 5 1/2 years old. He became severely dehydrated. Luckily, I did take him to the emergency vet, where they put him on IV fluids. After that, he had to eat a prescription diet for a week IIRC. The good news is that he suffered no long term ill effects from it as he lived to the ripe old age of 17 years 7 months. I am sure Brekke will pull through just fine.

Beth · August 28, 2007, 08:10:51 PM
