Today, I had to go into the office and work for a couple of hours. Newton was still seeping quite a bit so I made him stay in the ex-pens in his room. I know that he really wanted to sleep on the sofa, but that just wasn't going to happen with the amount of fluid that he had draining from his incision.

He is eating less today and doesn't seem to be feeling well. I still have the challenge of getting him to take his pills. He pretty much gives me the "I'm pissed at you!" look.

When I got back from work, I was taking pictures of his incisions. When I press down hear the "Y" portion of his incision, it makes a squishy-air sound. The bruising and the swelling of the incision area have gone down, but his remaining leg (right front leg) was huge. It was swollen from the wrist to his elbow. I decided to put an ice compress on it and massage it while he was getting his heat pack for the day. He doesn't seem to be in any pain and doesn't seem to mind walking on it, but it is noticeable bigger and a bit warm to the touch.
