First thing this morning we checked on all of the boarding rabbits to make sure they had fresh water, food and greens, and then changed their boxes. Next we gave Mosby the boarding cat his morning dose of prednisone (1/2 tab of 5 mg) and the rat, Thunder, his morning dose of Sulfathim.
Our first tech appointment was Sammy the Samoyed, he had a sebaceous cyst on his back rupture that needed to be shaved and cleaned.
Next was Sophie, a black DLH that needed a feline leukemia vaccine. It was given transdermal on the left hind leg.
Lilly the Maltese came in for a coag clotting profile because there was a possibility that she ingested rat poison, but she had been given her last vitamin K dose 24 hours ago, not 48, so she rescheduled.
Slipper the black lab puppy came in for a lepto and Lyme vaccine. I gave both subcutaneously in the left shoulder and left hind leg.
Juniper was neutered yesterday and came back in to be jump started on eating. Being a rabbit, we didn’t want to let him go on not eating for more then just the night. I gave him 50 cc’s LRS with vitamin B subcutaneously along with 0.2 cc of Reglan and we gave 9 cc’s of Critical Care for herbivores PO.
Claire is an Irish terrier who needed a Snap 3DX, came up positive for Lyme disease. She came back for a QC6 which I drew the blood for.
Mr. Tuffy is a Cairn terrier and needed nails and to clip around the bum area. I also gave Kennel Cough intranasal.
Lucy needed a kennel cough vaccine and Snap 3DX. I gave the vaccine intranasal and drew the blood for the test, ran test, which came out negative.
Mulligan Boyle a black lab mix came in and I drew 3 ccs from right cephalic vein for an in-house chemistry and profile.
Madeline the golden retriever had a hot spot on her right front leg and right inner thigh. I shaved both areas and cleaned with hydrogen peroxide and put Neopredef powder on the areas.
Ziggy the Dachshund came in for the lepto vaccine. I gave 0.1 cc of Benadryl SQ first because he was prone to a reaction, and then gave the vaccine on the left shoulder.
A DLH cat came in sick; I took her temperature which was 101.9 degrees. Then later I restrained for a chemistry and profile to be done in-house.
There was more down time today then yesterday, during that time we just cleaned anything and everything.
