2nd day at home after hospitalization...

(apologies in advance for inconsistent grammar. I'm updating this as the day goes.)

I took Lilo out for potty break at 8am, and she started shivering. I got so worried, I forced her to eat food and put 3 blankets on her. She stopped shaking after a bit, so I think it was too cold outside that caused her to shiver, not low blood glucose. At the very worst, she got a bit of food in her stomach.

She doesn't have much of a appetite. So far today (1:30pm), she ate about 3 tsp of canned food and drank some chicken broth (we mixed a few drops in her water bowl). However, she is in good spirit. We sat outside in the sun for about 10 minutes. She was smelling the air, perking her ears to all the noise, looking around. We actually took a short walk. She wanted to walk further but I was concerned. She saw our next door neighbor and wagged her tail. We sat on the front porch for a bit before going back inside the house.

At around 3pm, I took Lilo's temperature and it recorded at 104 (fever). We make sure she drinks regularly.

And her bruising is getting A LOT better. I didn't take any pictures. But her neck was very bruised up, you can feel a huge lump. I checked today and there is no longer a lump, just bruised up skin. So that's very positive! No more clotting concerns.

Lilo doesn't walk very much inside the house. So we make her go into her bed and shuttle her (aka, dragging her bed) from room to room. I shuttled her to the door and she joined Gizmo for our afternoon walk. She walks pretty slow (same speed as our previous HW-positive foster Diamond). Gizmo keeps turning around to wait for her. She is pretty happy to see a few people on the walk and especially my neighbor's cat.



Lilo seems to be feeling better. We let her sleeps in the living room, while we are eating dinner. She walks over to join us in the dining room. And she starts eating willingly (we are still hand feeding her). She is responding better to her surrounding too.
