Pinky update
Pinky got a clean bill of health. Like I did with the frat boys, I probably over-reacted by taking her in to the vet, but since Bob's bout with pneumonia I have been very conservative when it comes to respiratory symptoms.
Anyway, her lungs didn't sound bad to the vet's trained ears, she's got no porphyrin, she's eating, and she's active, so I decided not to do the antibiotics. If she still sounds wheezy I may try out Witter's sauna, if she'll sit still long enough.
Another bit of good news: she's down to 640 g from a high of 650. I'm not alarmed by weight loss since I've been trying to get the girls to shed some grams...their diet isn't as strict as the fat boys', but the only treats they get now are dried peas, Regal Rat, and the occasional leftover vegetables from dinner.
Leather is looking pretty good too; all I need to do is get Schwartzy on program.
