My female lionhead mix, Sweetie, has been having pain for a few days now. Not really enough to warrant a vet visit yet. I am keeping an eye on her. I have massaged her body and she has relaxed when I have done this. I have given her some gas meds, simethicone which expires next month so I have to get some more. She has grinded her teeth that tells me that she is in some kind of pain. When she feels better she licks me as if to say "thank you". I will be keeping her in my room tonight as I found out that she is cold. I covered her up and she enjoyed it, she didn't fight it at all.
Sweetie is 2 years old, spayed, she eats hay and drinks water. When I get the money I buy veggies and fruit. Nothing out of the ordinary, except the pain. She is pooping and peeing normal, also drinking and eating normal.
I am doing what I can for her at home and she does seem okay after the massages, but if she does get worse I will take her to the vet.
I have been talking with Randy about Sweetie's situation. He suggests just hay and water for a few days and see if she improves, and also to give her the gas meds. I don't want to give her too much gas meds.
What else can I do for Sweetie until I can get her to the vet which will be next month unless she gets worse?
