Glad there is a vet in the house. In terms of fur kids, we currently have 3 Whippets and 2 cats. Catherine has had to take a break from dog showing due to the shortage of a healthy and non injured show team! Ripley, Scarlett and Leroy (Whippets) managed to get themselves into a fight over a dog chew, leaving Scarlett scratched up, Leroy with grazed pads and Ripley with a very long term injury to his stifle tendon, which he is curerntly having Physiotherapy and laser treatment for. Leroy has gone to live with a friend temporarily so they can show him. Scarlett is fat and has been on a weight loss diet so Cath could get her back in the show ring, when she came into season ..... Ripley proved to be not so immature in mind, despite being only 10 months old .... without going into details, Scarlett is most likely now pregnant!! Not what i had planned just yet, as Ripley was meant to be the new star in the show ring and to gain his championship title before sireing ANY puppies! Scarlett was surposed to be back in the ring after her litter last year, but will be taking time off for maternal duties now.
The cats - Benson is on antidepressants for his anxiety. He has also just finished his 3rd course of antibiotics for antagonising the neighbors cat who rightly so, beats the living daylights out of him - giving him nice big cat fight abscesses! I wonder why he is anxious?!
Dylan came home last night, very sore and irritable, with a swollen chin and fever.
I wonder if goats and sheep are less trouble?!
Glad there is a vet in the house!!
