So Zoe is now home! YEA!!! She did great with her surgery and even ate this morning when they fed her. She is still a little groggy from the anesthesia! She has a sling to help her walk but only needs it when going up and down stairs - if you have ever been to our house it is all stairs! She also has Elizabethan Collar that she absolutely hates! Josh rode with her in the back seat to keep her from moving around and hurting herself. It will be awhile before I try to take her anywhere by myself.
Right now we gave her half her food and she ate right away – this is a good sign as they normally don’t want to eat. We haven’t tried the bathroom yet and are not sure how it is going to work. She was not a fan of the steps when we got home, Josh had to practically carry her with the sling to get her up the stairs. When we got home she walked around checking everything out. The kitchen floor is a little difficult for her. She instantly slid when she walked on it so we have created an island of mats towards her food bowl and to the living room.
Update – we just tried the bathroom – unfortunately josh is not a patient person so he carried her down and up the stairs. Hopefully by the end of the week we can get her to try the stairs on her own.
She is struggling to get up once she lies down so we have to help her a little so she can get to her water and food. We will see how night time goes – she might have me up all night (and I might be up trying to finish my school work)! I will try to post some pictures on my Facebook account and on here but like I said I am new at this Blogging thing!
