I neglected to comment earlier today that the girls had their annual trip to the vet this morning a well.  It's always a hefty bill, but they're mostly good for the year, with the exception of a blood draw here and there to test levels and any illnesses.  Vix remains on thyroid meds, not to be blood drawn until August, but today Danika also went onto thyroid meds.

The Pet Power has been helping her significantly with her soreness, at least to the point she's not crying out, but she's still very deliberate about her movement, slow to get up, and not quite feisty.  I would normally just say "eh, she's getting old", but when Vixen (twice her age) is still moving easier and even running about out back this morning I can't just let it go as being older.  So, this along with a less than luxurious coat has us giving the meds a try.  Prayers for Miss D, please!
