A very scary rescue :(

Thank you everyone!

I just got a call from the vet, far so good...she survived surgery. The impaction was built up urate. I am off to work now, but I will post more info tomorrow after I pick her up.

Wow, awesome news! Fingers crossed for her to have a speedy recovery. I know with you she is going to be strong and healthy. Can't wait to hear how she is doing.

Glad to hear she made it through... poor thing must have been uncomfortable. Hope she gets better soon!

how is she now, is she okay?

[Julia]

She is doing much better now, but not completely out of the woods. Since her surgery she has defecated twice which means the doctor was successful at removing the impaction.

Her left eye has improved to the point where it can open and stay open for minutes at a time. Her right eye is still bad but they are being treated with eye drops.

She is more active then she has ever been but refuses to eat so yesterday I started force feeding her baby food. My hope is that with a few days of force feeding with calcium mixed in she will gain back enough strength to hunt.

"Little Girl" (afraid to name her until she gets better) has survived longer then the vet and the people at the pet store expected. I just hope she keeps fighting!

[Jace]

Sounds like she has a fighting spirit, that one. Best of luck on getting her strength up and I am sure in no time she will be hunting and waiting to be properly named.

Thats good news.

That's great Julia.

SHE ATE four crickets out of my hand!!! This is amazing because

1. She has not eaten in over 2 weeks
2. It took 3 months of trying patiently every day to get my healthy male to eat out of my hands!

Time to celebrate by picking a name for her, any suggestions?
