I think I might be projecting what I think he is feeling. I know that he definitely was very sleepy last night, but he ate normally! He was a little gassy so maybe that's why I thought he needed a special dinner. Or I just wanted to spoil him a little more...
Dr. Turner did send us home with the Cerenia tablets that we are supposed to give him daily every 24 hours (just not sure if he needs it?). We could save it for next time? What do you think?
We adopted Mac in June 2014 from the GRCGLAR and he is our little baby boy, despite the fact that he is 11.5! Almost a year of bliss turned into complete devastation when he started limping on his front right leg and it was discovered on April 16, 2015 that he has bone cancer - specifically Osteosarcoma. We were luckily directed to Tripawds by our oncologist, Dr. Avenelle Turner, which changed our lives and guided us through the amputation process.

HAPPY ONE MONTH AMPUVERSARY MAC!!!!!!!!! 
This calls for ice cream and cake...not rice!!
As far as the Cerenia...and this was just me....I didn't give it to Happy Hannah unless she developed symltons...and she never did! Actually, there might have been one time where I gave it to her because I saw her lick her lips or something like that. She never showed any obvious signs of nausea though and she NEVER missed a meal...EVER!
Glad ro hear Mac is doing so well. Spoiling a tripawd knows no limits! Keep on spoiling...it's good for both of you!
Good job everybody!
Keep those AMPUVERSARIES COMING!!!!!!
Hugs snd love!
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle too!
