Health Updates

So far it seems like 2014 is off to a good start.  After several issues coming up in November and December of last year everyone seems to be doing great.

Emma - her liver numbers are elevated but they are coming down as a result of the Denamarin so we are hopefully that another month of the pills will get things in line.  Other than that Miss Emma is doing just great!

Oliver - I think he is doing much better but we need to do a urinalysis to confirm his infection is completely gone.  I took him to the vet the other day - no luck.  I got a take home kit and locked him in the bathroom - after hours of wailing - no luck.  So - that will be my next week task - trying to get a sample and getting confirmation that he is officially better.

Zoey  - she is really thriving on her thyroid meds - her health seems just fantastic!

Phoebe and Aggie - my two healthy girls are both overdue for a visit to the vet.  They just need a check up to make sure they are really as good as they both seem.  Hoping to get them in over the next few weeks. Both of them hate the car and hate being picked up so the visits are stressful for them.

The ferrets - I am pleased to report that we have no ferret ailments currently - all five weasels are feeling good and doing well!
