[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 368391, member: 539"] She needs to be lifted or rolled every so many hours to more evenly distribute her weight. Otherwise the weight of her body can cause paralysis, and the constant pressure on one side of her body will lead to open sores, and possible infection. 4" straps should work, I would think - if in doubt check with your neighbors and vet to see if they have a pair of hip lifters you could borrow.
