The ones that came out of the skin on her hip looked different than the bum ones the skin ones were white round and looked like they had a brownish or gold spot on the front.
Is it possible for Tape worms to come out from inside the skin and not just the butt. I would take a pic of the hole in her hip but it is nasty so I wont. it is deep and gross.I can even see the cartilage on her hip and tail top.
How did you get that pic to hide if someone didnt want to see the gross?

I had to force feed her tonite before giving her the Amoxidrops Doc said not on empty stomach she looks bad another rough day! I have left the wound alone and just keep trying to let her sleep on the heating pad and offer food at all times in the medi-cage she is not eating it right now. DH suggested it has been hungry for so long that it may have a different feeling that tells it to eat. so I am going to try to keep her belly full with out messin with her too much. She pounces on the food when she is ready to eat and keeps her paws above her head like she is blocking the food so she can keep it herself. I think outside she had to fight for scraps. And she is a weakling.
I couldn't either. I'll clean up anything that comes out of a human; the younger they are, the easier it is for me. But animals, I can't handle that. I'm such a wimp when it comes to that, that my DH actually told me that I was going to have to kill my own chickens when freezer camp time came. I told him I'd intended to all along, and looked at him incredulously. I couldn't believe that he didn't know that I would fully expect to cull my own livestock.
See there is something about Culling your own livestock that you raise. You want to know it was done humanely with no mistakes of suffering.
Want a job done right ... Do it yourself.

I am still hoping for her to be a survivor! I think all the attention is making her not feel so good.
But the good news is
She is Still alive right now with a full belly and heating pad
I hope better dreams than I had last night!Can't get the experience out of my head.
There is a tool on the tool bar next to the paperclip. It is great for stuff like that. It is called the spoiler tool.
