Any news on Maggie this morning? x

Just had a call from the night vet; she's much brighter this morning than she has been, eating voluntarily although not 100% normal quantities yet. They're going to reduce her pain relief to things I can give at home and see how she goes, but I may be picking her up tonight or tomorrow morning!
 
YAY! Way to go Maggie, you must be so excited at the thought of having her home, have you told Big Dave yet?

I am so please to hear she is doing so well!

I haven't told Dave, I bet he's dreading it! Whenever they've been separated, she's always been such a cow to him afterwards. Who knows, maybe it was all her hormones out of whack with all this! But re-introductions will be taken slowly :)
 
This is great news! Well done little Maggie x
 
Spoken to the vet this afternoon...Maggie is eating by herself and pooing well :))

They're ready to come home this evening but I'm not around, so I'm picking her up tomorrow morning :D

So pleased that she's come through this so well. Cannot rate the vets highly enough!

Wonderful news! Which vet is she with?
 
That is fantastic news! I am sure you and Dave cannot wait to have her home.
 
How is your pretty girl today? x
 
She's home! Looked a bit puzzled by the vet bed in her temporary hospital cage, but didn't let her confusion stop her from immediately eating! I can't believe how well she is. She looks a little rough around the edges, and has a huge wound (will post photos later!) but she's doing amazingly well! Currently munching her way through a pile of dandelion and marigold hay (spent a fortune on hays this morning!)

This is really great to hear, I was thinking about her on the bus this morning. I bet you were so excited to get her back home with you and Big Dave. Good stuff to hear she is eating well. Hope she continues to do well. x
 
That's fantastic that she is back home. Great to hear that she is eating well, hope she continues in the right direction. x
 
She's separate from Big Dave until she's completely healed...she's still quite scatty when it comes to handling so I don't want to have to be chasing her around their large cage 4 times a day for medication. Also with her being separate, I can see what she's eating and pooing etc. and being in a smaller cage, she can't over exert herself!

We have wet poos today, so the fibreplex is out, much to her disappointment! She also sounds quite liquid-y inside, so will get some recovery into her later
 
Saggy Maggie (her new name!) is doing well! Just checked on her as I've been out this afternoon, lots of formed poos but very small, so we're getting there! Going to discuss taking her off the gastroprokinetics tomorrow, as I think things are just moving through her a bit fast!

She's been scoffing her muesli today, I'm going to try and get some recovery into her later if it doesn't stress her too much so that she goes to bed with a full belly :)
 
Oh how lovely to hear she is doing well. I hope she can come off some of the medication. It seems so much for such a little one.
 
How is little Maggie getting on?

She's well in herself! Had some diarrhoea yesterday, so no veggies and just syringe feeding, dry food and hay - she's only really nibbling at hay though.

This morning, some wet but formed poos, now they're very dry, small poos, so going from one extreme to the other! She's staying at work over night until Monday morning, as I'm not around tomorrow to feed her, so continuing the syringe feeding and just giving teenie tiny amounts of greens (she just had 2 tiny dandelion leaves, with a bit of water and then hay stuck to them!) as she won't take syringed fluids.

All in all, we're going in the right direction!
