So Lilly and Ivy's surgeries went well on Friday. Ivy ended up having two tumors removed, Dr. Cody was very nice and did not charge me any extra. Lilly was up an doing the drunk walk, but poor Ivy just laid there she looked so pitiful I wanted to cry. But anyways, they did well and were wide awake Saturday morning so I put them in the FN with the other girls that Saturday night. Everything went well I noticed that Ivy had begun to pick her staples out. I wasn't to worried about it because he used glue and staples so I thought if she got the staples out it would stay glued shut.
Well I was wrong the little stinker had the incision on lower belly wide open this morning, so she is back at the vet this morning. I think that I will keep her in the ISO-tank for at least a week so I know that it is just her and not someone assisting her in taking the staples out. She will just get free range time with everyone every night.
Lilly's staples are just fine but I did notice last night that Flower kept trying to grab at Ivy's staples. Flower will get a hold of my earring and hang on for dear life. So I wonder if that is what happen. Lilly is more defensive about her incision and will not let anyone near it.
Oh and I got my FN up and going waiting on my Kat's Rat Mats to get in and then I will post pics ASAP.
Rose is doing well with bath tub intros with both of the new kids. Willow has even pinned Rose down several times. I will continue this until this weekend and then attempt to move the intros to the free range area and see how that goes. I have to be careful with this because poor sunflower is so scared of Rose but last night she was actually following her around and playing with her so I just have to prevent rose from attacking her and hopefully she will come out of her shell. Willow could care less about being attacked, in fact I think she likes it she tries to pick fights all the time in the tub and Rose just deals with it so, Fingers and tails crossed everything goes well.
