I felt Muffin needed a Vet check-up because she has been acting strange. Last week I bought a smaller carrier that would fit in the basket of my bike. It went pretty well on the bike. COLD though, about 35 degrees F and windy! I put a beach towel over her for the trip, that may have helped. She didn't make a sound. She was pretty scared at the vet but very docile. The vet speaks pretty good English, a lot better than I can speak German. The blood & urine work showed she does not have a bladder or kidney infection. So the vet is sending the samples to a lab for further work including thyroid tests and she will call me tomorrow. She gave her an injection that might help. She gave me a paste that I can feed her to help if it is an accumulation of hair in the intestines. She said to cook some chicken and mash potatoes, because that will sometimes help to firm up the soft stools. So some of this is good news, no kidney trouble, we have to wait to see if anything else shows up. Muffin is a bit jumpy now, I just moved my foot and she jumped up in the air.

Muffin goes for a cold 20 minute ride to the Vet. You can see part of the stairs and bike-ramp to the underground rooms where we store our bikes. |
