Macie was having some serious post-partum problems! We suspected she was growing more and more uncomfortable. We were closely monitoring her, when we noticed a strange discharge coming from her vagina. Then there was some light bleeding--and an unidentified mass that came from her little body. There was no time to waste. We had to get her to the vet, and fast!
An examination found that Macie's uterus was enlarged and thickening, leading us to believe that Macie may be a little older than we initially thought. It's likely that she has had several litters in her lifetime. Now, her body just isn't rebounding the way it used to! And the unidentified mass? That may have been a calcified fetus.
Macie has since been spayed. She needed a little extra time in the hospital to recover, but she is back with her foster, continuing to heal. This poor girl has been through so much! Fortunately, she will never have to endure the stresses and dangers of pregnancy ever again. Her body has done enough. Now its time for Macie to relax, recover, and enjoy a life of her own with a family who loves her.
