This morning we took Jupiter to the emergency oncall vet. The swelling was really really bad and it looked like dried blood was on the staples, so I thought it bled during the night. They checked him though and they did say he was very swollen but there was not blood. It was just more red and bruised so looked like blood to me.
He is still in pain but acting a little better then last night. I think the swelling is really bothering him. The on call vet does think he needs to be on some pain meds for about a week longer so we will call Jupes regular vet tomorrow morning and discuss.
This morning before I got a chance to start a new condo I posted this update in yesterdays condo:
this is update from this AM:
"We left food in the crate for him overnight and when I woke up this morning there was food EVERYWHERE! and he had spilled his water everywhere too. He was meowing... thats what woke me up... about 30 mins before I was going to wake up to give him his bupe –so took him out of the crate to see if he needed to use LB (he does have a LB in the crate with him but it only has the yesterdays news litter in it and the other LB has yesterdays news litter with his clay litter sprinkled on top so he will get the scent of his litter and know to go in that box)and he just tried to get out of the litter box. So I gave him some food and he did eat and I gave him some bupe and put him back in the crate (I had only been sleeping for about 2.5 hours) and I went back to bed. About an hour later he was meowing again and woke me up. I tried talking to him and telling him it was okay and to lay back down for some more rest but every time I closed my eyes he would meow again. So I took him out of the carrier.... and he acted hungry and ate a little more. 30 mins after that is when I called oncall vet and took him there.
He used the litter box yesterday and peed a whole whole whole bunch and hasnt used the litter box since then.
Every once in a while he will howl or yelp like hes in pain and he gets up and tries to adjust... like get in a more comfy position to lay. I think the swelling is really bothering him too.
Also wanted to say that Jupe did keep his cone on all night. He had his tuna ff appetizer all over the inside of his cone
but cone was still on and thats what counts.... so I had to get a warm washcloth and I washed him with the washcloth but not anywhere near the incision or anything. His fur all smelled like tuna this am at the oncall vet.... but now he smells okay again"
