So, Cappy is home with me now, We had her on fluids all day. Her bad liver value came down a bit, but was still high, and PCV (packed cell volume) was still high. But after consulting bloodwork from the beginning of the year, it was high then too so she thinks that the heart issues she was having, might actually be due to the start of some pulmonary issues. She still doesn't know why the liver value was high, but we're gonna recheck it in a few days to see if it's coming down. She thinks that most likely it will be and she probably just got into something. She also has a bladder infection, so that's also fun. BUT she's laying next to me now, passed out because she didn't sleep all night last night, poor baby :(. However, one very impressive thing happened as I was getting ready to leave. She is a rescue dog, so she is terrified of other people. She shied away from everyone this weekend. But as I was getting ready to leave, I had her hooked to the wall while I cleaned the cage she was in and this male technician that she never met just happened to bend down next to her to pet the clinic cat....and Cappy let him pet her! Then she actually got closer to her to let him pet her more! THEN she took a treat from him! It was brilliant! She's never done that before. She sort of likes the other male tech we have, but besides that the only male she likes is my dad! I was so amazed! Anyway, thanks for all the good wishes and everything, it means a lot to me to know people care!
