Into Home's Loving Embrace
Mar. 22nd, 2013 02:02 pmSully is home from the vet's now, and in an isolation tank made out of a clear Rubbermaid container with holes drilled in the lid for ventilation. He has a heating pad under half the tank in case he gets cold. He's walking around, and asking for cuddles, and he takes his antibiotics like a champ. I have him in my office with me, and when I gave him his breakfast, he dove right into the scrambled eggs, so he's eating and drinking well, and getting plenty of protein.
( Anyway, I have pictures! )
He will have to be in the tank for up to eight weeks, and until his wounds are fully closed, I have to clean them every day and put antibiotic cream on them, which he hates, but he lets me do it. He has a lot of bruising, and is in a lot of pain, and my brave boy will have battle scars, but he's on the road to a healthy recovery.
