queenwinniesmom Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 What a long and stressful journey---literally, and emotionally. You are a really good Mom. I hope Pearl continues to do well for a long, long time.

MP_the4pack Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Well now I know Little Miss Picky Pants doesn't like Ensure. But I did get her to drink some light eggnog with extra cream added. She got about 200 extra calories this morning. She had a restless night, so we're seeing the local vets tonight. She's just 1 week post op.

Guest Smiley Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 C'mon there Pearl-gotta eat more for your mamma! Give her a huge hug for us Mary Pat. Sending prayers that her vet visit goes well. And I have a great recipe for doggy meatloaf I can share with you-it would be easy to add some high calorie yummies in there for her.

Remolacha Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I hope Ms P.P. starts eating better! It never worked for Sugar, but I have always been intrigued by the dogs who eat cinnamon bread, or other sweet bread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MP_the4pack Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'm sure if I make lots of really good treats she'll eat it. But I'm hoping to save them for the end when her appetite drops. She loves my meatloaf (which I think I'll make tomorrow.) And there is a deli not far from here that makes a treat from all their deli meat scrapes (including prime sirloin and tenderloin!). I was just hoping to get her eating without having to resort to the really good stuff. She had hotdogs for breakfast and roaster chicken last night (at least she had a little kibble with that chicken.) But she's so skinny...

MP_the4pack Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Poor Pearl just can't catch a break. I'm bringing her to the vets tonight to get checked out. (she had an uncomfortable night last night), she's due for another PCV, and now she's got to get her butt sewed up. She fell on the slick patio this morning and landed on her bony butt. Now there's a 1/2 dollar size tear. Probably will need stitches. She's here in the office with me while I work. (and BOY does she have stinky farts.......must be related to her illness because she never had this in her previous 8 yrs with me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_the4pack Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Well Pearl lost a pound. But that could still be just fluid. Her legs were very puffy after surgery. And they are back to normal now. The butt boo-boo just needs to be cleaned. The lump on her forearm we're watching. But because it's not painful we're holding off the xrays for now. Since she's already loaded with cancer, if the leg is cancerous it just means no chemo (if we are even given the go ahead). So, it's not like I need to catch it early. There's no amp for Pearl. Not with her liver the way it is. She had no temp. The vet thinks she's just having a little tummy discomfort from the loss of part of her liver. Her PCV is the same. I wish it would start going up. I don't like it so low. So that's it in a nutshell. I'm working from home tomorrow to keep her company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krissn333 Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Continued good thoughts for your girl When trying to put weight on Sutra, I fed him elbow macaroni with cottage cheese and turkey baby food 3 times a day, more on weekends since we were home more often. Sometimes we used oatmeal or mashed potatoes instead of the macaroni, but, he liked the macaroni the best.

fionasmom Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I'm sorry to hear that Pearl is not feeling better. When Fiona was in the final stages of cancer we found that chicken livers or gizzards were a particular favorite when cooked in a frying pan with some water and garlic. I also cooked up a pork shoulder in the crock pot with some water then added pasta. Hot dogs were oftenr a popular meal for her and she liked vanilla pudding snack packs.
