Well, I was the one panicking a few days ago about the amputation. The surgery was done on Wednesday and she came home yesterday. She was only in the hospital one night because she was refusing to eat and they thought she would be better at home and more likely to eat. So I picked her up. The incision is kind of tucked under her hip and doesn't look as shocking as I expected although it was a bit upsetting to see her struggle and see a leg missing. She had peed a few times at the vet and has a couple of times since coming home. She looks awkward and needs support. She also pooped just before we brought her into the house after picking her up. Then five minutes after being home she ate some chicken and yoghurt had more this morning with her meds. She is taking metacam, tramadol, gavapentin and antibiotics. She looks kind of glossy eyed and very stumbly when she tries to get up and walk. I expected her to be a little more mobile than this. But it seems things are going well. What do you think, how are we doing?

Oh, and I was reading that you should slowly wean of gavapentin and not just suddenly stop but it doesn't say that on my instructions, just said take until finished! Did you guys wean off or just stop one day?
