Oreo had a good day.

Oreo had a good day. Aunt Taimi made cookies and he looked like he wanted some. We already know he has a sweet tooth, but those weren't for him. But she did share a piece of cheese with him!

He gets tucked in at night and looks like he could get used to indoor life. I am so thankful that he's got a warm and comfortable place to be until he's able to come home. ❤️

I think Oreo is settling in...

I think Oreo is settling in at the his Aunt Taimi's house quite nicely. He met the pack, chewed a bone, ate well and took his meds, and even figured out the doggie door! He has a follow-up appointment scheduled on the 19th. I am hoping to get my buddy back the weekend after. I sure do miss him, but it's great to see him looking so happy and comfortable! ❤️




Busted out of the hospital by his Aunt Taimi!

Busted out of the hospital by his Aunt Taimi! Re-check in 2 weeks, then hopefully headed home!

Happy day!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Good news today!

Good news today!

The doctor said Oreo can probably go home tomorrow around mid-day. Clots are improving and liver values look normal and white blood cell count is good.

They want to cut his fluids slowly and switch him to oral medication and make sure it all stays down. He's eating very well - everything but Pill Pockets. 😂

My heart feels happy. I am so thankful that he's on the mend. I am so grateful to all of you who care about him and check on him and have shared or donated to his GoFundMe. This has been a super stressful couple of weeks, but I am feeling the love and we both needed it.

I hate to ask y'all to share his GoFundMe one more time, but as of this morning the bill for his hospitalization was $4599.68. 😬 If online donations aren't your jam, you can call VCA Animal Medical Center in Anniston, AL at 256-236-8387 and donate directly to his bill. I have picked up many a stray, but never one so unwell. I have no regrets, but that is a large chunk of money.

Thank you all again for the support. ❤️

I checked on Oreo...

I checked on Oreo before the vet closed today. He's still eating well and keeping his food down. Still on fluids for the night.

I will post an update when I hear from his doctor tomorrow. If he's cleared to be released from the hospital he will go into a temporary foster home to continue to recuperate. Once his health is stable enough that he can travel he will either be brought to me by a friend or I will go pick him up. I hope to have him back by my side within a few weeks.

I will keep everyone posted! ❤️

We're home safe.

We're home safe. New Mexico welcomed us back with snowy mountains and a beautiful sunset. I'm glad to be back.  ❤️
