She made it through the night without needing an emergency vet visit and I'm so thankful. The vet, who said he didn't sleep last night with worry, had me come in to check her for anemia to see if she needed a blood transfusion. She was low but not in danger. We'll do another check tomorrow am.
She's eating and drinking and moving around.
I ended up putting a plastic bag under her head with a wad of paper towels so I could monitor the bleeding and remove and replace with clean paper towels as needed. It kept the bedding clean too.
This thing is gone..
Lots of staples..
I've earned a few more grey hair with this experience. lol
