He Survived

"It was so horrible...."
A whole day with no posts!  It's been a very busy day for Linda... and a very stressful day for Chimi.  Remember his broken dewclaw?  Well, Chim chewed it mostly off during the night.  It was red and a little bloody this morning.  The Vet said he had to go in for a shot! some bandages and  antibiotic cream.  Plus, they had to cut it off or possibly remove the entire claw.  Oh no, poor Chim!  Linda had 3 classes to teach, so PW took him to the Vet.  Turns out that he didn't need any of the treatments they suggested.  He did have to get trimmed and all his other nails cut.  Even with a muzzle on, he screamed...cried...growled and pitched a fit while they worked on him. He also got weighed and a regular checkup.   It's so not fair!! He also lost .8 pounds.  I've been trying for years to lose just 1.5 pounds and he goes and loses almost a pound without even trying in just a few months.
