Skruffy n Flea Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 right then... so it's like about 1:30 am and i'm ready to hit the sheets ONLY to find vomit in two spots on the bed [OH went to the 2nd bedroom cuz he couldn't deal ] so here i am, back at the computer at 2 am; a comforter in the wash with a set of sheets and a cover to go --- the cycle per load takes just short of an hour and that doesn't include drying! yes, i could dress the bed otherwise BUT i have to wash what is already stained *headslap* i guess this is some kind of payback for not understanding the appropriate treating of parasites in dogs; both were wormed with drontal [up to 10 kg] and they each got their dose of comfortis [4.6 to 9 kg] too [they are both being boarded tomorrow on account of me and the OH going on a 10-day break] they've had both drontal and comfortis before, but not together and this time too, i crushed up both and added it to their dinner --- neither of them ate all of their meal i won't do it that way again... bobbie got a dose too of 2mg worming paste --- she's a bit ansty, unsettled... this kinda sux!

Shaar Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 No matter what they will always do it right when you want to go to bed. I have been up until the wee hours of the morning before because SOMEONE has peed on the bed. Said "someone" also likes to scratch all the blankets back just to make sure he soaks the matress nice and good. Means I don't have to wash bedding, but I have to clean a matress and wait until it dries (usually involves an hour of holding a hairdryer to the bed) If the vomit got on the matress diluted vinegar is good for getting rid of any odors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdierikx Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I buy 3kg containers of NappiSan... chuck a lid of it in with the wash, and everything comes out nice and clean and smells good too... Do you think that your furkids are picking up on your excitement/nervousness about going on holidays without them? T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frufru Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 (edited) One of the side effects of Comfortis is vomiting. So maybe restrict them when you have given this and don't combine with other meds. Enjoy your holiday!!!! and Don't worry about the dogs!!!!

Bully Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Hope your guys are OK and you get away on your much needed after this holiday Pele vomitted at 2am Thursday morning all over the carpet so had to deal with it straight away Just cleaned that up and she vomitted in her bed She vomitted several more times and I noticed blood in the vomit. At 4am a trip to the After Hours Emergency Vet across town She's been on a drip, pain meds, anti-biotics and anti-vomitting meds Her blood tests have come back as OK. I assume she may have eaten something besides possum poo at agility training on Wednesday night. that she'll be able to come home after 5pm today. I miss her soooo much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 I hope Pele is OK and feeling better? I take my dogs good health for granted and forget how wrong things can get. Must have been a very stressful night for you. Hope it is all good now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have been a very stressful night for you. Hope it is all good now? She's home now with a bag of medications, but is feeling much better :D They are fine one minute then things go wrong the next. You just feel so helpless when they get sick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skruffy n Flea Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 it would seem that at some point after my post at 3:37 am i was able to get to bed; albiet a messy, throw together kind of bed yet one that was dry and not stinky --- on reflection, i could have joined the OH in BR 2 but the dogs would have been a tad offended cuz that room is pet free... shaar, i don't know why i smiled but the fact that i then winced would surely make up for it --- god awful predicament to say the least! t, i used napisan for a while but kept returning to biozet attack --- there wasn't any remaining smell cuz i plastered the marked areas with de-solv-it before putting the king-size comforter, its cover and sheeting separately in the washer --- the de-solv-it took care of the surface marks on the mattress protector... as for them picking up signals: yup! a combo of that and the parasite treatments i'd given earlier in the night --- doing it different next time, learnt my lesson... frufru, yeah, i understood that about comfortis but was complacent cuz they'd both had it before without ill effect --- mixing it with drontal tho was the kicker perhaps, so gunna do it very different next time... bully, i hope your lil one has recovered after such an ordeal and skip, no truer words, none... thanks everyone for your input, greatly appreciated :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
