dog walking and cat sitting on Fri 2/17
Harley & Gibby - they are doing just fine and they're getting used to me too. There was much less barking this morning. :) I let them out right away and fed them. Gibby ate, Harley nibbled. I let them back out for a little while and then they came in and Harley finished all of his breakfast too!
Rocky, Lucky, Maddie and Cotton - Lucky has enjoyed chasing sticks while Rocky snoops around the yard. The kitties enjoy meal time! haha!
Sadie and Henry - I won't post again today so since I don't see then until tonight, you can read about them Saturday morning.
dog sitting on Sunday 2/12
Sweetie - I think Sweetie had a good weekend! She looks pretty comfy all tucked in for night night :) I know Shannon loved spending time with her, I did too. She makes me laugh when she gets all excited and runs around the back yard. I still think she sounds like a horse galloping when she runs!
Jackson - Jackson has been wearing his coat outside. It is cold and even with his coat on he comes back in shivering! We're spending some time on the couch and he's been getting some belly rubs. We've played some with his tennis ball too.
Cushing's Disease
I am procrastinating. Sam has a vet appointment in about 40 minutes. He hates going to the vet. His symptoms from his Cushing's disease are getting worse. (He was diagnosed in Nov 2010.) We decided to treat him holistically when he was first diagnosed. He was on Chinese herbs until we thought perhaps they weren't gentle enough on his stomach. So we took him off everything. Now I think we are going to put him on Trilostane. The vet wants to do some additional testing just to make certain something else isn't going on with him.
To make matters worse, I think he had a seizure last night. Bless the poor old guy's heart. Doggie prayer's for Sam would be much appreciated.
Puppy Sitting on Tues 2/7
I've had the pleasure of hanging out with this little girl the past couple of days. Her name is Topsy and she was born 11/28/11.
pet sitting on Monday 2/6
Jay and Chloe - they are both doing just fine. I played with Jay and then fed them both and scooped Chloe's box. I gave Chloe the rest of the canned food.... she was happy!
