Sorry I didnt reply sooner. Sick. In fact because Ive been home from work all week I've been able to watch her. She seems her normal self. It is red and drying up. She ate supper a couple of hours ago and now she is sleeping which is a little odd. But it could be because she was up most of the day. I have not seen her lick it and she has let me touch it (for a second). I will continue to watch her. I hope she'll be okay. I'm sick and now she's got this issue. We're a sad household. As for the weather we were supposed to get into the 50's and we barely hit 37. Grrrrrr. Thank you again. I will keep you posted.
