day 9

Well my boy is doing better. He's eating with gusto...(who doesn't like fresh salmon??). It's so hard to know how much to medicate him though. I may be under-medicating him, but he's quieter these last few days, moves more and sleeps a lot. He won't move when outside at all, and mostly moves inside when food is happening. Yesterday he was actually hopping up and down on his front leg in impatience while I'm making him a gourmet meal! He occasionally cries out for no reason apparent to me, but god knows what he's feeling. I'd feel like shit if I was him. Don't want to post pics of him right now, as he's not looking his best and would be so pissed.

Unfortunately somewhere along the line, right after surgery (Thursday of last week), his eye started bothering him and after visiting yet another specialist (oh, why didn't I study science harder!?), he now has to wear a collar as he has damage to the cornea. It's so hard for him to move around, but when everything's off in a week he'll feel really good! Who knows, maybe the collar acts like a rudder...but I don't think so.

He's so brave.
