My foster Letty was adopted in early February. Fortunately, her mom is very tuned in to her ... she sent this note yesterday (Saturday)
When I got home from work on Thursday, I knew Ms. Letty was not quite herself. After dinner she started throwing up...didn't seem to be able to get comfortable sitting next to me in the recliner. Off to the emergency vet we went. Once there she threw up a ball of string from a tug-of-war rope. I thought that had been the problem but she kept throwing up. A barium drink and x-ray showed the barium wasn't passing from her stomach on through her system. The surgeon was consulted,called in, and did surgery on her about 2 A.M. Friday morning. Ah yes,he removed more strings from the rope! I found what was left of the rope when I got home. We have no more of them! Letty came home this morning, and has been resting most of the day in her crate. Everyone at Michigan Vet Specialist thought she was just the sweetest little gal and a great patient. They were thorough and just wonderful throughout the whole ordeal. Thank goodness we're on the road to recovery.
Sounds like everything is A-OK now.
