Mama Doe
Pat seems to have lost some muscle on her hind end and has some sharp little hip bones. She still has a nice rounded belly and her spine doesn't feel sharp. She is 9 years old though. We had a vet trip on Tuesday and he just wanted me to monitor it for now. She's still binkying and running about and eating normally.
She had lost some weight, from 1.6 to 1.4, but Bob had also lost the same amount, from 2 to 1.8, so that might just be the season - more running around and binkying.
She does sometimes seem a little stiff with her hind end though and after her latest big binky session she was very quiet a few hours later, like she'd over done it and was a little sore. Was bribed back around again with some pain meds and some bramble leaves (her favourite!).
I don't have pain meds prescribed for her at the moment though. Is there anything I should be considering that could help her joints??
She's still pooping normally and cleaning herself up normally too.
