Delilah & Peanut went to the Vet

Delilah's tail was looking rather odd and Peanut's upper arm was swelling up, so off to the vet we went. 


Delilah was NOT happy to be held. Or touched. Or looked at. 


She was only fine when she was down. I was trying to flick off a little piece of fluff on her incision and the whole end came off! 


Dr Folland said it looks fine and I'll keep it washed and cleaned until it heals. 

Peanut has a thickened bone because at some point his upper arm broke. :( On his other arm, his elbow broke and healed in a twisted way which is why he walks on his wrists. 


His bones are still pretty soft due to the MBD. Hopefully by the end of the year, he will have recovered from the MBD. He will most likely always walk on his wrists and have a smaller than normal size, but the rest of his life will be ok. 


When I got Peanut, he wasn't even strong enough to lift his body up and walk. He's made a lot of progress in just a month.
