Still hopping
Tai and I are still hanging in there. I had two scares – she was drinking excessively and peeing excessively so off to the vet; urine and other tests revealed……..old age! I was worried about kidney failure so that was a relief. She is also getting some bumps on her body; diagnosis……old age with the caveat to bring her in if any change size or become squishy. They are pretty small, don’t appear to bother her and no changes so far.
She does occasionally get uncomfortable at night and a 1/4 melatonin helps with that (she is on carprofen and gabapentin). Since she doesn’t do well in the heat she’s enjoying the winter. We had a walk at the park today and I carried her back to the car.
As I’ve read on here is common with TriPawds, she thinks she can go forever and I have to make sure she paces herself.
She still hates the camera; no good ones today so here is her calendar girl picture taken in October.
