Sukie, thanks for the links! they are very good!
Alicia, Sandy, Ulrike and Chris, Thanks for the information !
We call some vets around Z=C3=BCrich and none will make a surgery while she=
is in heat. They also do not give the hormon injection.
We were told that B=C3=A4rli will be in around 4 weeks, back to normal and =
we have to wait... =
I hope that's not dangerous for her. So, we have to wait 4 weeks till she i=
s normal and then spay her ...
Thanks all for your care!
Kisses, Paty, Pikku & B=C3=A4rli
