Description
Meadow gave us a bit of a scare yesterday. I came home from seeing janeeden to hear that meadow had gone to jump on the sofa & not quite made it & had fallen back on her back legs, which as she is almost 15 are not the strongest. I rang the vets to see if Phillip could see her but while they were getting in touch with him I decided to rest her that night & see how she was, I was told if I wasn't happy with her to take her in next day.
Dave stayed downstairs with the girls just to make sure she was alright & didn't attempt to get on the sofa's. As Phillip is on his holidays next week I decided to take her to be checked out. So after she had had her breakfast & cuppa tea, off she went. She was better for walking & I walked her outside the vets & Phillip checked how she was walking. She had a good examination inside & he said to give her little & often strolls & as the girls go swimming he said to make sure she swims. She is on a light painkiller anyway so didn't need anything but have got other pills if I think she needs them.
She came home, settled down & slept, then I got her out for a walk on the front , she had her first tea then back to a relaxing sleep.
I have just had her out again, she was walking much better, she is wide awake now demanding her treats & her other half of her tea. Its so good to see her alert & feeling brighter. Still keeping her off the sofa's though.
A case of Alabama foot rot was diagnosed about 30 miles from here in Lincoln, so best still be vigil. Sorry Jasmine!!!!
Thanks for all the lovely comments & favs, so, so appreciated. x

Such a great deal of love and patience and great care for all you#animals its a credit to you Barb I hope she is on the mend as much as she can for her age thanx for sharing my friend!!
Old age is a bummer for all species! She is a lucky lady to live with you
Glad to know that she's been responding to the light exercise. It's difficult to watch our beloved furry companions get on in years, though Meadow looks great for her age--no wonder with all the TLC she gets from you. Sincerely hope Jasmine's test come back negative...
Glad she seems better, great capture!
good to hear that she's doing better - yeah, the mind writes checks that the body says no way are we cashing this one.
