We're not having a great night.

We're not having a great night. Scooter is drinking, but hasn't been eating. The only thing I could get him to eat was leftover chicken from Dad's BBQ. I guess I got too excited about that and gave him too much, because he threw it up not long after he ate it. 🙁 Seeing as how he's on 2 anti-nausea / anti-vomiting meds I wasn't expecting that.

We didn't get any special instructions with his meds, but I'm going to try to feed him closer to when he takes them. I've noticed that his tummy gets all grumbly and noisy shortly after he takes them, so maybe that means it's trying to digest. I'm getting pretty desperate for him to eat and keep something down. If that doesn't work I'm gonna have to get him to AMC this weekend or something. I can't have him going on like this until Monday.

Scooter is being weird. 😕

Scooter is being weird.  😕

I guess him being weird is not unusual, technically, but since he's had so much going on with him it is pretty worrisome.  🙁

So for the last few days he'll be just all chilled out in the floor, but then he'll grumble and / or bark.  It's not just isolated - he'll do it for a little while.  He really reminds me of a senile old man who's just sitting on the porch and shouting at people.  LOL

He isn't yelping like he's in pain and he doesn't get up or move like he's trying to get comfortable or get away from anything, but it's just so bizarre.  Yes, this is coming from the dog who would only walk backwards in the kitchen for years, and who would bark at the wall for I don't know what reason, but still.  He made it over such a big hurdle simply by surviving that surgery and I just really don't want for him to have made it through that only to continue feeling bad or something for the rest of his life.  I wish I knew what he was doing and whether or not to be worried about it.  😕

It's been a pretty good day. 🙂

It's been a pretty good day.  🙂

When I went to put gas in my car at the gas station near my house I asked them what all of the construction was about.  They told me that there was going to be a Domino's Pizza in there!  WOOO!  I'm gonna be eating some thin crust pizza ALL THE TIMES!  😃

After work I had a surprise dinner date with my guy.  It was a long day for both of us and I have a test to study for, so I'm not even great company right now even when I'm not at work.  😕  It was really nice to just see his face and talk and eat.  ❤

Also, it sounds like it's about to storm, but I made it home first.  I hate being caught out in bad weather!  Or even rain.  LOL

Anyway, I guess I'm off to make a study guide (which to me, is part of studying because I'm still looking at and thinking about the information).  I hope that I kick ass on my lab practicum Tuesday.  I am super glad that this semester is finally nearing it's end!

Scooter got his staples out and also some meds for nausea.

Scooter got his staples out and also some meds for nausea. Maybe he will feel all better soon. 

Dr. Long said that even though he's been throwing up the last few days he's gaining weight. The tumor they removed was 3 - 4 lbs, and he's already back up to his pre-surgery weight.

I've medicated the boy and he's resting. I guess it's time to get started with my day!

Someone says it's time for a cuddle break.

Someone says it's time for a cuddle break. LOL I guess my brain is too tired to learn anything else tonight, anyway. ❤

I want this week to simultaneously be over with AND slow down.

Blegh.  I want this week to simultaneously be over with AND slow down.  I've got a Biology test on Tuesday that is going to be hard so I would like more time to study, but this first week back at SCM is kicking my ass because we've been playing catch-up from being closed for 2 weeks.

Looks like there is no drama in Happy Tails Lost & Found Pets of Calhoun County for once this week, so I'm off to study.  As my mom would say, "If you need me, holler."  ❤

Scooter doesn't have a great appetite the last few days. 🙁

Scooter doesn't have a great appetite the last few days. 🙁 Called the vet this morning and was told to put him back on his Prednisone. Shadow called me about 5 hours later and said that Scoot threw up. 🙁 I hope that he's ok. He gets his staples out Thursday, so he'll see the vet then.
