Charlie’s appointment yesterday went well. She continues to maintain her weight. My biped did most of the “expressing,” under the doctor’s supervision, of course, and got out most of the stuff. Dr. Zellner checked the bladder and got out a little more material - she’s Dr. Zellner!
Overall, she was pretty happy with how the pinhead did. But if you could hear the pinhead squirm and grunt - you would think it was his bladder getting expressed.
And when all was said and done, they did a “smell check” and agreed something is starting to brew, so here we go with another ten days of Trimeth-Sulfa. We almost went a month without a UTI. sigh. Maybe this month will be better.
So, for the rest of the day, the bipod stayed out of our sight. All was well as the evening wore on. We hung out, had treats, did some art.
This morning we started it all over again. One paw. The other paw. Extra head rubs. Extra everything. Dreams of arting. More head rubs.
This morning, when we did our regular “morning expression,” it’s been
less than twenty-four hours since the appointment. We got out about the
same amount of chalk and grit out of Charlie as we did yesterday. Do we
thump? Do we binky?
Good night and good luck!
