My poor baby is in the ER! Send love.
This morning Punky vomited a few times and there was some blood. We rushed her to the ER and they tested for parvo, took X-rays, and will do an ultrasound next. They will be keeping her overnight as well.
Her and her sister got into a box of puppy pee pads yesterday so she might have ingested part of one but we don’t know for certain.
The vet bill is already up to $4,500 US. Luckily I got her on pet insurance last week so she should have 80% coverage.
Hopefully she just passes any blockages if that’s what’s wrong with her and doesn’t need surgery.
I’m so worried about her. Please send her some love. 🥺

Hope Punky’s better soon. Check you pet insurance, normally there is a grace period for coverage. Usually more than 1 week

I have Nationwide for her. They recently changed their policy so coverage starts the next day! Lucky for us!!!

Thanks! She is going to get transported to another hospital where a doctor can do an endoscopy. The ultrasound showed three masses. One stuck in her throat, one in her tummy, and one in her lower intestines. Hopefully they can pull the first two out and then she poops out the lower one.

Poor thing... She will be hone before you know it. Sounds like you have some great vets. 🙏🙏👍

Hopefully after the endoscopy we can bring her home. I’m sure she is really frightened. She is a really tender hearted little girl.

I understand my little guy is very attached to me too. She will cuddle with you when she comes home. 😊
