She's still very sleepy and not moving about much , she did however pee all over the sofa when I took the other 3 out for a pee 🤷‍♂️. She was sleeping and I thought it would be easier to take her out on her own . So we've a bit of a mess now unfortunately. But she seems OK other than dozy . Just lying getting cuddles. Quite a small wound only about an inch or so ..

Going to try her with some food in a bit as she must be starving but she's made no effort to drink or eat since her surgery. But vet says 24 hours sleepiness is normal

She's had some water now and half her dinner , I didn't want to let her eat all of it in one go in case she's sick .. I'll give her the rest later. She's more alert now and wants all the dinner lol but I'd rather she wasn't sick.


They didn't give me a cone or anything to stop her licking the wound so ill have to try and make something with an old t shirt for now . We're parked up in a really dirty horrible picnic spot for tonight but it was the closest thing to the vets I could find that we hopefully won't get hassled at. If all well in morning we will head away from bolu for the day and night and come back on Wednesday for her check up. I'm sure she'll be fine though .

Poor Blu, but best for all in the long run 🫠🫠
Yeah I've been telling her that lol. I did feel a bit guilty early as I caused this discomfort etc but we don't want the hassle of having to avoid strays everywhere over the next few months and they say its best for her in later life .

Jade is the only one I had this with before and it was over 5 years ago now so I can't remember it . But I'm sure she was back to normal in no time.

It’s a bit like if you had the snip Tam. It’s uncomfortable for a week but after that the benefits are great. 👍
I had the snip when I was 30 lol. Blu is being much braver than me. I had a butcher lol I was in agony for days .

A mate of mine was back at work the same day ...God knows how he did it

Are you sparing us the details of the disposal of the mice Tam or did they pack their bags and leave of their own accord(y):giggle:
I've seen no trace of them so I'm guessing they've either left or they stashed enough nuts under the floor to have lasted this long.

I've to come back to vet on Wednesday for a check up and some antibiotics. He's given her 48 hour painkiller and antibiotic injection today .
So he’s obviously got the patients interests at heart and Blu is doing well,all could not be better.
Our pets give us unconditional love and l know in your case it’s the same in reverse your love for them is unconditional and they know that hence the emotion felt when they wouldn’t eat, start to chill you are doing a brilliant job in the commitment you took on in building your family.
Tomorrow is another day and l am sure you will all feel much better.

Check to see if they have a hate crime rule first😉

Cheers🍻
I honestly don't know what it is with them . They walk past the van see ela or jade sitting in the front seat ...go closer and press their faces to the window or tap on it , dogs start barking and instead of doing the sensible thing and feckin off they proceed to tap on the window more 🙄 causing the dogs to just go crazy.

It's bad enough when I'm in the van and I can tell the dogs to be quiet or move them in to the back ( which I shouldn't have to do ad it's their home ) but when I'm not in the van they're worse because they're guarding it . But that's how you see people's windows etc being broken by idiots thinking dogs are in distress , they're not in distress because it's warm etc its because there are brainless people about .

Had it a few times with Moroccans but rarely in other countries but jees the turks do it every bloody day. The guys in the petrol stations are the worst. One sees the dogs and calls over their friends to come see. On some occasions there's 5 or 6 idiots all tapping on the front windows. And most don't understand english so it's pointless trying to explain to them they're distressing my dogs

Sometimes I just hate people 😒

There must be a reason for this. Are they gormless? Is it such a novelty for them to see dogs in a vehicle?

I've no idea , you do see people with pet dogs here but they're few and far between . Everyone has cats , I don't know why they do it but they don't interact with dogs properly ..as I said I saw it in Morocco too , they click their fingers at the dogs and say hey hey hey etc and expect the dogs to go to them... their whole body language is off and the dogs can sense it . But the tapping on the windows really annoys me ... I'm constantly cleaning the cab windows between greasy hand prints and the dogs obviously putting wet noses and paws on them.

I've not the patience for it lol ....like I said in another post I just wanna slap them round the face Hitler style and scream "vy vy vy you do dis du shweinhund"

Yes, thank you
Its a culture thing, Muslims see dogs as dirty creatures and will try and avoid physical contact with them, its the same in any predominantly Muslim culture, you are a novelty with the dogs in the van so its like a child with a new toy to them, they can * interact* with the dog safe in the knowledge that its behind glass and cannot easily get to them

My thoughts also, you are in their country, so it's their rules, they probably think the same way about you as you do them.
If you don't like it, don't go.

You are joking aren’t you!? I had some trainee do mine in a teaching hospital and ended up losing pints of blood and spent a further 3 days in hospital whilst they re stitched properly and gave me blood transfusions. Complete waste of time as AIDs started up so I couldn’t use my blank firing ‘Love wand’ for fear of catching something. 😜

Ah well my van my rules so from now on when I'm at petrol stations or I park to go in a supermarket etc I'm going to leave both front windows half open . If some idiot loses a finger then it's their own fault. My dogs aren't there to entertain halfwits
