Sprinkles- is scheduled to have a amputation on Tuesday 5/24.
Her leg has not healed at all and remains broken with only the pin to support
the leg. We are hopeful that her FIV status will not cause delayed healing post
op as it has with the fracture.
C06 Great Pyrenees- has an old injury causing a chronically
dislocated left hip. We are performing an FHO (femoral head osteotomy) on
Tuesday 5/24 which will remove the femoral head and allow the leg to heal
without causing the constant pain that the dislocation likely causes. He was
shaved and had multiple foxtail abscesses. He is on antibiotics for his skin
and pain medication for his hip. He will hopefully be going to foster for his
post op recovery.
Gator- continuing to improve and will likely be neutered
soon and be available with a medical waiver for his skin condition that is not
fully healed, but SO much better.
D01 A280083 Lhaso Apso X- she has a left cherry eye and is
going to have that repaired at the time of her spay this Saturday and then
available for adoption.
C3-22 Black cat A280085- is being treated with antibiotics
for an abscess/bite wound on his right hock.
C3-08 Kittens (3 brown tabbys) – positive fecal for round
worms. They have all been dewormed today and you may see worms in the stool
over the next few days as they pass. I would expect the loose stool to improve
after a few more days.
German Shepherd litter in Q-07/Q-08- we have a litter of 6 –
6 week old puppies that were surrendered. They are being treated for roundworms
and coccidia and will be fixed and available once they are old enough.
Sapphire- I have pulled her off of the surgery schedule for
now to monitor for a few more days. She seems to be slow to bounce back after
the deworming from the large amount of roundworms that she has. She has gained
½ lb and is eating the canned food. She has been checked for additional
parasites, parvo and giardia and is negative. I have her in cat room 4 so that
she can be closely monitored.
C3-20 A280174 Grey/white- older neutered cat (no chip) was
found as a stray and seems to not be in great shape. He has a bit of a distended
abdomen and some dehydration when he arrived, but was examined locally and no
major issues were noted on exam. We will monitor him throughout his stray hold
and assess.
C3-14 A280171 Ragdoll- came in as a stray (neutered and no
chip) with an abscess on the right side of his face and neck that will be
treated.
C3 Orange and Torti kitten- have continued Giardia after
treatment course and though stool appear normal now will be treated with
additional medication to ensure giardia is resolved prior to alteration and
adoption.
