Loving my Oldies

As Tassie said: wishing you strength and comfort on this sad day. Emmylou will be in the arms of love.

That is very sad news, nickyp.

Oh my goodness - that is soooooooooooo funny. Go Tigger - you look very special :thumbsup:

He looks a deal little soul all ready to go and make someone very happy.

Bone Broth and Lactose Free Milk have been my - and I am pretty sure Danny's - saviour.

My thoughts are with you and Emmylou.

If you have absolutely no choice but to go back to classes, perhaps you could find someone to stay in your house through the day: a friend, relative, or even another student who doesn't have classes, but can study through the day. Another thought (although this would be disruptive and possibly could be painful and distressing for Emmylou), perhaps take her each day to your vet for the day.

Exactly the way it should be

Too true - easy as after the first time. I cook their rice in it via the absorption method. 1 cup of rice to 2 cups bone broth, cover, bring to boil, turn down to a simmer (keep covered) that will last for about 10 minutes until all the broth is absorbed and rice cooked.

That's how I feel, WM. So nutritious. If Danny drank nothing than that I'd be happy, but with the probiotics, Lactose Free Milk and Royal Canin all mixed into his "shake" I am sure it is all so good. I bought a 10ml syringe and now give him a syringe full or two every couple of hours. He'll be on a diet in no time. :D Go Wobbly Mac. You are one special, strong little boyo. :thumbsup:

And as gorgeus Oh dear, can't spell today. G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S

Oh, Canetoad - what a horrible thing to have happened. I hope you heal very very quickly and can enjoy the time with Jonah. Is Jessie still back in Kal? Must have been pretty emotional and exciting spending time with your daughter.

That is a beautiful photograph, nickyp. Hugs to you and your children and all the other animals. It seems like caring for Emmylou during this time will be a family affair.

Glad it is a success. The one I bought is non skid - perhaps you can put it in a corner where she can't push it around.

Are you still convalescing from your op? If you are, my only suggestion is that you spend a lot of time lying around with Emmylou. Even if it means just putting a mattress on the lounge floor or wherever you watch tv or dvds. She will probably pick up a little now that you are home and spending time with her. She will be getting very tired and will be content just to be able to snooze near you. I hope you are looking after yourself as well.

Yep, kill whatever you like, but don't litter. :cry:

:cry: Oh no!!! Ronin is being unfaithful. Poor Tigger.

Watching Danny like a hawk these days and seeing the slow deterioration into extreme old age, I can certainly relate. Danny is far from the state and stage that your your darling Mac is, and sometimes he is like a puppy, but when I see him falling asleep on his feet and just about toppling over, I am reminded (as if I needed it) that our time together is running out.

Considering pet sitting and dog walking requires no skills or experience I think any course can only be seen as a good thing! How sanguine you are :) Have a look at [**kirty**'s thread - I think it was **kirty**, I'll check]. She is an extremely experienced animal person and still had an event. In another person's hands, this could have been disastrous.

It is a journey we take because we have loved.

If it was in addition to an IRL course, fair enough. To be honest, I was tempted to buy just to see what it was like and what sort of myths they might or might not champion. Or might or might not debunk. :) :)

LOL - WSM. We all need so-called guilty pleasures. I call them health improving pleasures Just thought that one up :laugh: :laugh: I am being so strong for my poor darling and instead of those pleading eyes making me put something more into his bowl, I think of his little food pipes trying to get it into his stomach. He has had just a few very small meals today - one of lactose free milk and bone broth which he brought up twice and licked up twice :eek: . So while the mechanicals were having difficulties, I have to assume that he wasn't feeling sick which is such a relief. We are coming up to afternoon meds and, although he doesn't often throw up in the afternoon, but it does happen from time to time. :crossfingers:

:mad It makes me so made that incompetence (and arrogance) plays fast and loose with people's emotions, not to say time and finances. Poor Jonah, poor you. What was the diagnosis of QVS? I hope your trip to Bris enabled you to catch up with friends and other Pei People.

Brutality writ large by dent of the size of the population. :cry:
