I have to say that for the most part we are very blessed to have healthy furries. No one has any major ailments to speak of - knock on wood. We do get a myriad of minor ailments here and there though.
The kitties have the hairballs that kitties experience. Today, for instance, Oliver has an eye thing going on. I believe that Phoebe accidentally poked him in the eye while the two were wrestling yesterday. He is all squinty and pathetic. I washed it out with colloidal silver which is an anti microbial. If its not better by Monday then we will make a quick trip to the vet for some prescription ointment. On occasion Emma has intestinal distress. Clooney experiences some intestinal upset as well.
Nigel had his strange gait thing. I still think he has a bit of favoring of the left side but nothing like it was. He took about a week off from running on his wheel. Then he started up again. Now for the last couple of days he has stopped again for some reason. I had him out today and he is active and happy. I did cut his nails. The back ones were a bit long so I thought I would cut them just in case they were bothering him when he runs.
All of these things are so minor in the big picture that I do feel very lucky that my babies are so healthy!
