Prayers For Thumper

11:30 p.m. update
I took her temp and it was 104.4
Called the ER clinic and talked to a vet on call. Really nice we didnt have her the other night. In talking with her she felt that it was ok to wait until tomorrow morning to call our vet. Yes there was a fever but it wasnt any 105 like the other night. Infection (UTI) causing this to happen. Unfortunately the fever shot (actually ivprofen spell? like Advil) should work for 12/24 hrs. Now did she throw up all of it's effects we dont know. Hubby gets up at the ungodly hour of 4:15 am, he leaves for work (teacher) at 5:30 a.m. I will take her temp again then and see.
This vet recommended just letting her sleep and rest.
I felt better after actually talking to a vet.

It's so frustrating to not beable to talk to your own vet directly in after office hours. Medical dr's do it why cant animal vets.

Good to hear that Thumper is back home. Did she have a good night last night? Poor Skinny, missing his sister!

She felt normal at 3:30 a.m. this morning.
I just tried to take her temp and in the same amount of time I had the high reading last night and it barely stared to move at that pt today it was only reading 92.0
She got very pissed at me so I stopped.
I have a call in to our vet and inbetween cases and surgery he wil call me back.
She is eating,drinking and pooping. :)

I hope Thumper will be feeling better soon and that her temp will stay down. Let us know!

Will do :)
I think she broke the fever in middle of night. Just my instint.

2:43 p.m.
Temp 101.4 !!!!!!!!!
Although it could go back up in the evening/night time just like humans temp that can spike at night.
I hope that isnt the case tonight. Since she has 1 shot and 2 antibotic tablets under her belt for far since this all started.

Glad Thumper is doing better and will pray that she continues that way. It's so frustrating when we have to leave them. At least at Dr. Lee's, someone is there even on Sundays and one of the staff vets called me on Sun. morning. But I still feel lousy about it when I have to leave one of my furkids. But we do what we gotta and you're a good mommy, so hang in there, both of ya!

Blessings,
M

Now that is good news, too.

I'm so sorry I missed all this. :(

I'm glad her fever is coming down. I'll pray for healing to come soon...no more tummy aches, no more fevers, no more pain.

Mom had a good nights sleep and Thumper is doing so much better. She is getting perkier each day :)
Still continues to eat/poop/pee. Her appetitie is getting better.
I dont think the need to monitor temps is urgent anymore and I'm sure Thumper will be pleased with that revolation. :D

nICE TO HAVE A VERY GOOD UPDATE THIS am! (oops, caps lock) :o

Yay for a good night's sleep! You've definitely earned it, girlie! You're a good mom and I'm so glad things are going better! Puddy says she's glad, too. ;)

Blessings,
M
