Beegie went back today to have the padding under her cast changed (for the first time). The vet said The cast had dropped about a half inch and that under no circumstances should I let her walk even a little on the leg because the cast can slip off! She's being a good girl about taking her Clavamox (antibiotic) which I hide in a "Pill Pocket". Sure beats trying to get her to take her pills crushed and mixed with her food. I think having the tv on for her has helped with the boredom. I wanted to watch the padding change procedure but there was another cat in the room that would have been disturbed by my presence (or so they told me). Perhaps next week I'll be able to take some pictures. Update 1/15/07: She's rejecting the Pill Pockets, even dipped in tuna juice!...so I'm holding back on the food to make sure she's really hungry when pill time comes and mixing the crushed pill in with her food. That's working.
