    Taboo, sweetheart, PLEASE eat!

    Does she maybe need a small amount of appetite stimulant to kick-start her?

    Many prayers going out to you and sweet Taboo.

    Taboo is doing OK. Not great, but not bad. Sometimes her appetite is good, other days it is not. She has until Monday for the eye meds and then she goes back to the vet. I am sure she'll have lost weight.


    So we are just waiting out the days hoping for the best outcome.

    And just for the record, she has not been wearing her cone head. She was just so miserable with it on. And if these turn out to be her last weeks (at her age) I won't stand by and watch her be uncomfortable. She leaves the eye alone, she just wanted to be able to sleep in her favorite spots without distraction from the cone.

    I am just now seeing this Jen! Poor Taboo, she has already been through so much, she didn't need this. My heart is breaking for her. Fingers, paws and toes crossed that the eye drops saved her eye and it don't need to be removed. She deserve to live out her final days happy and loved, pain free and I sure hope she has a lot of those days ahead for her.

    Special Needs Pets just leave bigger imprints on your heart!

    Taboo update.

    It has been 2 weeks. Taboo got the stitch out. And her cornea IS healing.

    To me, her eye looks really funny, sort of cloudy all over, but the vet is only conceerned with the cornea injury. And it is healing well. (she probably had lost most of the vision in that eye already, due to age)

    So, 2 more weeks of the eye creams and back she'll go to be looked at again.

    Not bad for a grouchy old lady.
