Another Gilly Update

[loracs]

Just got home from the vet. Gilly went in at 10:30 am and we had to pick her up at 5 pm. The x-ray showed everything was fine, but in the last day a large black puffy area appeared on the back of her foot. The vet said it is most likely a spider bit. She has a 14 day course of antibiotics and I have to put warm compresses on it a few times a day until it opens and drains. He said it will be messy. We have a follow up appointment next Thursday. We hope by that time the it will be healing and the doctor won't have to mess with(i.e. debride) it.

To Be Continued . . .

I guess a spider bite isn't as bad as a broken foot....hope her recovery goes well.
