1) Baby Atom Ant is still doing well. He is only half the size of his siblings, though, so that still worries me. but one day at a time.
2) Jasper went to the vet today because I felt a fatty lump in his belly. And that is exactly what it is! The boy is UP 2 pounds and this is a fat pouch. There is some thickening at one point, though, so he will keep a watch on it.
3) Shilo went along to the vet too, just to listen to his heart. The vet feels his murmur sounds MUCH less that before and we can reduce some of his meds. :)
4) Calvin was doing litter box hopping over the weekend, so I started him on antibiotics. He's settled down and is eating and drinking and acting OK, so I decided not to take him for a check up yet. The med seems to be doing the job.
5) Moms and all the babies are doing great! Angelica's 3 week olds are practically running (wobbly, of course)! But I can't remember babies that young being so advanced. I bet they'll be eating in another week (That is when their spotlessly clean little furry bodies are going to become MESSY!!)
6) Bonnie is the only one with a slight problem. 1 tooth was missed during her dental, because of the swelling from the stomatitis, a small tooth was missed. And now it is causing swelling and pain again. So she got a depo shot last week and will go get that one pulled (free of charge, by her wonderful vet)
WOW....almost everyone seems to be doing really well (remember not so long ago everyone was having problems.)
Thanks for listening.
