Round Two

Back to the vet last night. Again, so friendly and kind. I'm bummed that Dr. Troye is going on maternity leave and that we would have to find another vet for Rosita to see if she needs one in the next 12-15 weeks. But congratulations to Dr. Troye anyway! (She's so cute -- it's her first!)

She agreed that Rosita's tummy is not back to good yet, but that she wouldn't expect it to be over only two weeks. Since Rosita was too wiggly and wouldn't allow for her second deworming treatment, we were sent home with about 10 syringes (without needles!) and a small bottle of medicine to give her over the next three weeks. These include deworming meds as well as an anti-biotic for her tum-tum. We need to administer these by either: a) getting her to open her mouth so we can squirt the medicine in or b) hiding it in her food, like a grape or other juicy morsel. Considering she thinks my fingers are food, I don't think we'll have a problem getting her to open her mouth. But even if we do, she's such a good eater that should be a sinch too.

Fortunately, the second trip to the vet - albeit difficult - was no where near as gut-wrenching as the maiden voyage.
