fritofeet Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 We are at one week of toothless Lucy, and so far it has been going ok. One thing that has been getting progressively more noticable, is in the evening she starts shivering. I hadn't been too concerned since she was still on antibiotics, and she finished the last one this morning. I thought it was because she was hungry or needed her pain meds, but tonight she is heat seeking and is under a blanket which she never does. She had dropped weight before the dental and now after I can see she has lost a couple more pounds, so I am doing 3-4 meals a day for right now. I think it is from the lack of body fat (now that I typed all this out), but I figured I would check and see what her temp is, and make sure it is normal. Thanks!

Wonder Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Passion was shivering at night and the only thing different was she was on thyroid meds.

TheFullHouse Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 If I remember correctly a normal temp runs between 101 - 102.

fritofeet Posted December 25, 2009 Author Share Posted December 25, 2009 Thanks. Lucy wasn't happy with that holiday suprise! Her temp is 102.1 of course, so I'll keep an eye on her. She's under the covers and warm, which is weird for her because she is always a hot dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliforniaGreys Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 I know you said it's been a week since the dental and her temp is now normal. But just an fyi, anesthesia lowers their body temp but it usually returns to normal pretty quickly. Hope the 'hot dog' feels better today Quote Missing my little Misty who took a huge piece of my heart with her on 5/2/09, and Ekko, on 6/28/12 For the sick, the lost, and the homeless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
