Not done yet
Stubborn as ever, Melody is pushing us around and when her legs don't do what she tells them, she leaps forward. Such a fighter!

More Mei-Mei
We went to the vet this afternoon because Melody was having a lot of trouble walking and looked like she was breathing heavily. They took X-rays. Turns out she'd just over-exerted herself and her lung function was much better than two days ago. The pneumonia had cleared up nicely ( Read more... ) -
Melody
Well, she's eating like a horse. She went through an entire package of chicken thighs yesterday and ate a beef liver today so far. But she's not drinking. We literally have to force water on her. It's weird. But we're doing it ( Read more... ) -
