Ravenous!!!!


Didnt know where to put this.

How come when Denis comes back from getting his needles he is starving, he eats everything in sight!!! and then some!!
Is it the adrenalin rush or fear?? he leaves sweaty paw prints on the table and i know he gets really stressed out by going...or is it relief that its over?

Re: Ravenous!!!!


That's odd BC - have you mentioned it to the vet? I would think that fear and resulting adrenaline rush may be the cause, especially as you can link it with sweaty paws. I would say something to the vet, just in case it is some reaction to the jab.

Re: Ravenous!!!!


My first reaction was eating as a stress reducer .. comfort food ...... but Angie has raised a good point. Check with the vet just in case, although if this has been going on for a long period of time it may be nothing to worry about.
