There was no diarrhea in the house when I got up today AND she had a solid poop this morning (first one in over a week)!! Dale and I couldn't be more pleased.
When I talked to Dale this morning I mentioned that for the past four days or so Athena's been positioning her body as you see in the top photo of this post. Her head is placed between her front legs and both of her back legs are extended in the same direction to her right. Usually when she lies down she is fully on one side and extends all her legs in the same direction. Positioning her body the way shown on the top photo is causing her to cock her body to one side when she walks. This concerned me at first as losing the power in her legs will cause her to have difficulty in executing her daily functions. Dale thinks she's doing this to possibly protect her stomach. Hopefully this is temporary. I'll bring it up to the vet for her appointment on Wednesday.
Moments after I brought this up to Dale Athena briefly shifted her position to being completely on her side as seen above.
