[QUOTE="LizHartley1991, post: 1486990, member: 31466"] So here’s an update. It’s midnight and I just got back from the movies. Here’s a rough picture of Mira’s Ear. I don’t know if you can see it, but the whole corner tip is skin missing and ripped off. It’s still slightly bloody. [url=https://postimg.org/image/jto8fz5fv/][img]https://s17.postimg.org/jto8fz5fv/ACD34_FD0-_F8_FE-4070-_A2_F9-9_FF924_E3_DA09.jpg[/img][/url] I was able to get Mira to eat 2 1/2 Pints (quarts) of formula. But it was a very slow process. Honestly I was reminded of when I was first helping her feed from a bottle. I even tried the turkey baster technique but she wouldn’t take anymore. So all together - including what I was able to give her around her normal feeding time - she has 3 1/2 Pints. Which isn’t bad but again she could hardly eat any of it for long. She’s having a little hard time walking. She’s sluggish but not swaying so much as trying to walk too fast makes her stumble so she moves pretty slow. And she’s extra affectionate and tired. I feel giving her the draxxin in her leg has done this and I’m worried I just made her sick or something... One of the three vets that all know me and Mira said to give it 24 Hrs. If her appetite and movement haven’t come back properly by tomorrow around the time I gave her the shot, then I should be prepared to call them on Monday unless she shows improvement before then. So I’m not gonna freak out or get mad/upset yet. It’s not in my control right now. I just wanted to share how stuff is right now for y’all since talking with you all makes me feel better and you all put up with me this long so... Thanks. [/QUOTE]
