As time goes by.....

What a lot has happened. Harki had a sore hip and had trouble getting up on Tuesday so I made her an appointment at the Vet, but when I got home from tea , Peri was limping very badly on her left back leg, and it looked like her cruciate ligament was affected. So Peri went to Harki's appointment and Dr Tim said, yes, it was her knee and gave her anti-inflammatory drugs and she has to lose weight and be on the lead for walks. However, when Harki went the next day, Dr Tim says her left kneecap is popping in and out at will, and yes she has a bit of arthritis. She has to lose 7 kilos and has tablets too. After 3 days of boiled cabbage and celery with a little rice and dry dogfood they are happy, perky, hungry and playful. Peri is 100% recovered and Harki 75-80% recovered. They are very happy, if not hungry. They both have to go back to see Dr Tim next Wednesday and then regularly to be weighed. I hope they do well!!!
