Charlee (our dog) is waiting at the animal hospital.

She got into something that is making her sick.

Oh noes. :(

So very hard when our lovely pets are poorly. I do hope they figure it out quickly and she is soon on the mend.

Worrying.

She is going to be okay.

It was a busy evening in the animal ER, and the angel light was on, so someone unfortunately lost their pet tonight :(

Thank goodness. I kept checking by to see if there was news.

:( So very sad for someone.

I like the idea of an angel light. Nothing like that here & when Ty died , husband had to carry him out in front of everyone waiting with them watching silently on.
. Dreadful.

It was sad seeing the couple waiting to go see their pet one last night, you could tell they were trying to be strong in the waiting room. First time I have seen such an idea at a vet, its just a nice little glass vase type thing with some nice white lights inside, with a little note explaining when the light is on someone has lost their pet and are saying good bye.

Thankfully Charlee will be okay.

Looking at the pictures makes me get quite dizzy and not in a good way

Looks like a good place for a porn shoot. So I'm led to believe.

Thanks.

The vet sent home some sort of prescription food in a can with high fiber to help, Charlee is fed raw, and I did attempt to give her some, she smelled it and walked away from it, I put a little on my finger and she took some then spit it out.....Can't say I blame her, its not a pleasent smell at all, and she has never been fed canned food so not something she is familiar with.

Oh bah! You may have to disguise it somehow.
MrBEVS Dusty cat only really likes raw too. Vet gave her some dry stuff to try and help with her teeth in some way. She utterly ignores the stuff.

If it is a high fibre issue then is there anything else that would help? Something she would like?

I mixed in some pumpkin into her regular food, its supposed to help and she will accept her with pumpkin....

Oh yes. I remember doing pumpkin for my old Ty. Good stuff it seems.

When I lived in the Gulf we had lots of houses like this they were called “Louis Farouk” which puts it pretty nicely. Pretty ghastly...

What a mix up.

https://globalnews.ca/news/5829859/w...WDNWJCg4aADuGs

Seem's some babies were given a hair growth medication instead of heart burn medication. Seems the mix up was with a lab who mislabeled the medications.
