Title: Zuzu off to the vet tonight
Post by: Leslie on November 02, 2005, 04:47:31 PM
Yikes. All signs point to a back problem.  She yelped when I picked her up and wasn't her usual frantic self when daddy came home.  Later she was laying on her side and when I gave her a belly rub--her right leg started shaking, and not the happy way. 

They did have a full day today what with being outside and chomping on dead mice and getting baffs.  After that they ran around like fools like they always do and then had their suppah.  They always get quiet after supper, so I never paid any attention to them.

Send rayz, please.  Will know more tonight.
Title: Yup--it's back

but not as bad as Loki.  Same meds, but a significantly shorter "rest" time.  crud.  Beginning to think this all my fault. :verdict:  Too much letting them get away with what they want, like charging up the sofa to bark at the Poodles through the window!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yikes!!! Hopefully it's just a muscle strain.  Sending rays for all those ailing in Perkasie.

Geez Les! As if you didn't have enough stress with Loki! So glad to hear it is a milder version...but not fun nonetheless. It's hard to keep these guys from doing things they shouldn't. We just have to get that much more creative on ways of keeping them safe from themselves. I foresee two sets of sofa-seatbelts in your future...hang in there and keep us posted on the both of those babies.

Maybe it is only muscular--she looks FINE this morning. 

So we can conclude that rolling in dead mice causes back problems. 

I was still able to smell that horrible STENCH on them this morning, even after baffs and soaking their collars and harnesses in Lysol.  The smell is in their EARS!  They must really really rolled in that thing.  Icky ick.

Hopefully they just overdid (is that a word????).  You never know what will hit our kidlets the wrong way.  Rest, rest, rest......rays on the way - keep us posted !

Poor babies and poor momma!  Hope Zuzu starts feeling better.  It could just be a strained muscle, especially if it seems better this morning.  Still it never hurts to be careful when it comes to backs!

Kissies to Zuzu.  Er......on second thought....rolling in mousies?  Maybe a pat on the head will do.  Hope you keep feelin' better, kiddo.
