Lexi seems to be feeling a lot better. She was playing with Nikki while I was making the rice and chicken, finished it just before the electricity went out. Good thing it is only in the upper 60s today! I made up a mixture of 1/3 cup shredded chicken and 2/3 cup of rice. She ate about 1/3 of a cup. She would have kept eating but I didn't want to give her too much the first time.

I tried to get some Pediolite but Target only had the flavored ones. I did get a syringe (sp bad) from the pharmasist but for some reason when i got home it wasn't in my bag. I don't think she drank any water when I was home.
I didn't realize it until I got back to work. So tonight I going to work on getting some liquids into her.

I can usually find the unflavored Pedialite in the 4 packs of the smaller bottles in the grocery store. Since you have to throw out any used portion in 24 hours, the big bottles are a waste. Plus, it's easier to keep the smaller bottles around.

If you ever order from places like Revival, you can order a packet or 2 of electrolite replacement powder to keep on hand, too.

I have learned over the years with Lady how important it is to have a well stocked first aid kit on hand!

So glad Lexi is feeling better. So glad that you aren't so worried anymore. It can be scary!

Wow! I just read this thread and I know how upset you must have been when Lexi got so sick. It is such a helpless feeling because they can't talk to you or point to what hurts. AND they don't ASK you first if they can eat something, they just eat it!

I hope she is completely back to normal by now and has learned her lesson about eating poop
Give her kisses from Pico and I.
