She still isn't fully recovered yet. She's severely dehydrated and Saaga-Togg didn't milk her today simply b/c she was so dehydrated that she was afraid to pull off more fluids and nutrients from her already taxed system. Cleo did get some water from her Mg injection, although it may not be sufficient.

We'll know more tomorrow

If she's that dehydrated why don't they give her fluids? :/

At 5:30 am, Cleo lost her fight with whatever it was. Vet's not even 100% sure it was magnesium deficiency.

Severely dehydrated, she had 2 bags of glucose pumped into her but she didn't respond, her body had undergone so much stress she simply gave up after 3 days of battling this.

So sorry she didn't make it. How sad. Wish they knew for sure what the problem was.
