It's been a rough week for me. My back legs haven't been treating me very well. But today I have two reasons to be thankful.
Mom got me a new cushy bed to see if I would like it. Here I am trying it out before it gets put in a spot I like. I like it a lot, but I am having to compete with Misty and Timber - they like it a lot too. I think Mom may need to get a couple more:)
I got to make a visit to my V.E.T. to see if he could help make me more comfortable. He thinks I may have overexerted myself when I decided to chase a squirrel across the yard. He kindly added some tramadol to my daily routine to see if that will help. Things are feeling a bit better this afternoon. So thanks, Dr. B.

ReplyDeleteHi Lightning,
ReplyDeleteGail and I are very sorry to learn that your back legs are giving you gyp. Paws and fingers crossed that new bed plus new medication plus of course TLC from your Mom will help a lot.
Toodle pip!

Dear Lightning, us "oldies but goodies" can't quite do the runabouts we used to do ... take it slow and easy friend ... PS, when this oldie got a new hip bone in her one leg the dogter also gave her the same medicine, it helped some. Didn't know us humans and dogs would take the same pills, how 'bout that!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad your doctor could help you, Beau is having the same issues. You look wonderful on that new bed, it looks super comfy.. Love you Lightning!
ReplyDeleteoh beautiful Lightning! that is Your Bed! Mom got it for You.
ReplyDeletebut she will get them one too surely. I'm glad your vet is looking out for you.
and your mom is wonderful! xo
Hi Woo friend, Ojo here! I hope your legs keep feeling better! But maybe you can keep convincing your person they don't feel better so you can get more nice Beds. And Treats. Take care, friend!
ReplyDeleteLightning, my precious Sibe pal. I really hope your meds help you feel less discomfort. You are my hero!
ReplyDeleteWell dear Lightning, a squirrel is a very tempting item to chase but maybe not for YOU to chase!! Sorry you overdid a bit but that new very comfy bed and your new meds will sure help a bunch. TAKE IT EASY DEAR FRIEND!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Teddy
Lightning we hope your back legs are all better soon. Yeah those naughty squirrels get us into all sorts of trouble. BOL boy did our backyard squirrel get a shock when Yin and Yang came to live with us. Unlike me and Tuiren those two can climb trees and they followed the squirrel right up the tree, even though they are cats they can run pretty fast and they ran with me and Tui after the squirrel. ~Your pal, Fenris
ReplyDeleteZappa here: Know what you mean Lightning. My back legs don't work so great, and I have a rabbit I've been trying to catch! He's too quick for me, but I keep trying when I can. Hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteDoggone tree rats-they cause problems everywhere they go. Hope you feel better soon. Nice bed!
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better today Lightning.
ReplyDeleteLulu: "Aww, I'm sorry your legs were bothering you! I'm glad you're feeling better now. This is just another reason to rid all yards everywhere of squirrels!"
ReplyDeleteHi Lightning! That new bed looks so comfy, you chase those young pups off because that bed is YOURS! We hope that you are feeling better for sure!

Hugs to all

Hi friend, Ojo here! Are you feeling any better?
ReplyDeleteLightening! We are glad that the new bed is working for you! We feel for you! One of the befores had arthritis in her back legs and had to take medications to be comfortable. We will add you to our purrayers! (We also hope that your siblings get their own beds).
ReplyDeleteJust checking in on you all! Hope all is A-OK!
ReplyDeleteRosie and Redford
