The vet just called and Polar bear gets to come HOME!!!! He is much better, but he will remain on a special medication for another 2weeks and mom needs to make sure he takes that medication and not allow him to do his clever little trick of spiting pills and hiding them.
He will also have continue using a liquid medication for the ear also and vet will be showing mom how to do it. Polar bear did get 2 of the stitches out so that is a good sign, the vet said the ear is doing much better but the same rules will still have to apply. He can not be outside for long periods of time, the ear will need to be kept clean by using this new liquid medication 3 times a day.
Polar bear was amazing in a sneaky way....
he would eat the treat, but knew there was something in it, and I just can't figure out how he did it but he did, he held the pill in his mouth and so would go around the house spiting it out soggy half dissolved pills! Yes we found pills in some of the strangest places!
The vet even thinks he is too smart for his own good and yes he attempted to do it while at the vets! So they changed it so he got the medication right into his system.
It is just wonderful he can come home again! We will get him around 3 in the afternoon today.
It is true the power of prayer does work, thanks so much everyone! Polar bear is on his way HOME!
Polar Bear will not come home today, he is doing better but the vet wants him stay today and come home on Friday. The infection had spread more and he was getting quite ill and we did not realize it. He was not taking the medications or I should say not getting enough of the medication since he was spiting out the spills. So there just was not enough medication his is system. The vet is making sure he gets it and he is doing better and she thinks on Friday he can come home. It was a scary time, but he is improving thank heavens!
Thank you for all the prayers and thoughts!
We are not sure really what happened Polar bear got quite sick last night and we had to rush him to the vet.
I just spoke with the vet and he is doing better breathing good again, it may have been the medication, we just are not sure what happened? The vet is running some tests and he might get to come home later today or tomorrow. She is just a wonderful vet!
Thanks everyone
