Sigh, and possibly TMI
There are some days I feel like a crappy pet parent. Everyone will be okay, but I hate not always knowing what to do, or not taking perfect care of my animal babies.
*Bunny seems to be feeling better, but first she had loose stools (last week), and now she's only pooped once since yesterday (but she IS pooping, and her appetite has improved, so things look better). I guess if things aren't back to normal by tonight we'll call the vet back...we put her on tiny doses of Immodium, so hopefully it's just that it finally kicked in and she'll be okay soon.
*I was planning to clip the guinea pigs' nails this morning, but we were up too late last night and did not get a chance to, and it occurred to me that it's been 3 or 4 months since I did it last (I usually do it once every month or so, but we moved and it threw everything off). But we checked, and their nails are long but otherwise ok. The only issue was a little poop pellet wedged on Dixie's nail, so she got a bath tonight and it came off. I think it scraped her paw and caused a little bleeding, but it seemed to be stopping quickly. Which is good, because I have no idea where my styptic pads are. At least Dixie is very spry for a six year old piggy girl.
*It occurred to me last night that I had not tended to my NintenDogs since we moved. But they were neither dead nor gone, and I don't think trainer points go into negative numbers. At least these dogs weren't real.
