While Todd worked on his spring gardening and landscaping...
I was off to the vet with the lovely Ms. Yellow who hasn't been feeling well. My "usual" vet wasn't working, so I saw the young vet. I think that she's kind and caring and there is no doubt she has the potential to be a really good vet. But her inexperience, not just with Ms. Yellow, but another dog she saw of ours a few months ago showed. I left the office with several prescriptions and no real answers about why she's not eaten since Wednesday, and only a vague plan. Today has seen little improvement, so I'll take her to see my "usual" vet on Monday if there is still no change.
The holistic vet came to see Josh and Jake, Someone else stopped by to do some "manicures" for a few of the dogs.

Its been a really busy weekend, and I could have used another day between Saturday and Sunday. But it has ended quietly, just as I like it to.

**Whale update**
Unfortunately, one of the Orca Whales on our town's water tower didn't make it.
(see previous post) I guess you really can't keep whales in captivity. Or maybe it was just too cold. However, there are plans to re-inflate him very soon. I wonder if the Town's Mayor is going climb up there again and do it?
Poor Ms Yellow, I hope you get more satisfactory answers tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteJosh seems to be tired from his treatment, I hope it just relaxed him to sleep!
Silly whale stuff!
i too hope ms yellow is alright. it's scary when they refuse to eat. they know something's wrong and can't tell us. her beautiful face there... so touching.
ReplyDeleteand that's the tiniest little cat... mohawk! how sweet next to sheba in the sunlight.
and...
i think maybe one of the vultures tried to eat the whale maybe! one giant peck and well...
xo♥
Otto's tummy has been off for a while. I'm haveing the dame issues with the "new" lovely, but not very confidence-inspiring vet...Sheesh
ReplyDeleteQuiet endings are good. Hope Ms Yellow is feeling better soon. Todd looks like he's engaging in trench work.
ReplyDeleteHope that your regular vet can make the lovely Ms. Yellow well again. Good to see how contented Josh and Sheba look, but what is Todd hoping to find - has he lost a bone !
ReplyDeleteI hope tomorrow your usual vet can throw light on your dear Ms Yellow.Not knowing is the worst. The others look very happy and relaxed, let there be peace and good health for everyone at your home.
ReplyDeleteHoping Miss Yellow will feel better very soon.
ReplyDeleteGetting very concerned about that whale though...you can never trust an inflatable whale these days...perhaps the mayor needs to be inflated and sat up there instead!
Paws crossed fur Ms Yellow, I hope nice Mr Vet can help
ReplyDeleteI do luffs the picture of Josh, that is serious relaxation, hehe
Loves and licky kisses

Here's hoping the appetite returns and you don't have another vet trip. That's deflated the Orca experiment.
ReplyDeletei hate when animals don't feel well.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, I am sorry your kitty does not feel well. Josh looks so comfy! A quiet end to the week is a good thing. Poor whales! Happy Monday, enjoy your new week!
ReplyDeleteOur vet clinic has two excellent - even fantastic - 50-something vets, and the new female vet, who is very poor at diagnosing, and who missed two deadly situations, resulting in the death of two of our cats. We refuse to see her now. It makes the staff mad, but we're a bit mad ourselves at hiring a poor vet when surely there are some good ones out there! I hope Ms. Yellow feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteSAVE THE WHALES! and Go Todd Go!
I hope all goes well for Mrs Yellow . My cat did that for a bit and we found out it was all because she didn't like the food , so I changed it to a different brand and all has been good . Lovely photos . Hope the Vultures don't decide to deflate the whale they are planning to put up there Vultures can be very bad for vandalizing things . Thanks for sharing , have a good week !
ReplyDeleteMorning Kim, sure hope Miss,Yellow feels better soon, sweet face.. Those Vulchers are so funny, as is the picture of the bottom of that digging Todd.Blessings Framcine.
ReplyDeleteGlad things ended quietly for you. We have the same situation, a new vet that is very nice and I think has the potential to be very good as she learns, but I don't have a lot of confidence yet. We will see her if it is routine but prefer the more experienced when there is a problem

It's frustrating when you feel the visit to the vet did not bring a solution. Hopefully your regular vet can shed a little more light on the trouble.

You have to rename Mohawk. That's not the right hairdo for "Mohawk".
ReplyDeleteWe use to have a new young vet right out of school, mom thought she knew more than she did about us, but now she has grown up and is doing a good job wif us. stella rose
ReplyDeleteHope Ms. Yellow is better soon. Someone needs to send the mayor back to grade school so he can learn about air expanding when it's heated and contracting when it's cold.
ReplyDeleteIt is not good when a kitty will not eat. Hope all goes well.
ReplyDeletePrayers and well wishes for Ms. Yellow. Gracie wants to know if Todd needs any help?
ReplyDeleteKim...(off the subject as I don't see an email address). You have an open invitation if you ever get to this neck of the woods. It would be a pleasure to meet you.
ReplyDeleteHope all is going well at your house this week, Kim. God bless.
ReplyDeleteI do hope Ms Yellow will be OK. Young vets have to get experience of course but one usually prefers those with more years under their belt.
ReplyDeleteI imagine you often wish there are more days in your busy weeks. Pity we can't s t r e t c h time.
I hope Ms. Yellow is doing well.
ReplyDeleteI understand all too well about vets and their experience.
I hope the other one had better answers and helped her onto her path of feeling better!

Lovely peaceful pictures of dogs snoozing. And Todd's butt -- not so peaceful, but very cute.
ReplyDeleteThe orca whale story is such a fiasco that I'd be surprised if a national news show doesn't pick it up!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope Ms. Yellow is on the mend. I love that photo of Sheba and Mohawk in the sun puddle. Sweet!
Maybe the birds pecked him to death. Prepare for a town whale funeral. Appears the birds are not afraid.
ReplyDeleteIs MS Yellow okay Kim? We keep thinking of everyone at Golden Pines
