POOR LITTLE ROSE

She hurt her back right paw on Monday, moving day. I was outside with her when she suddenly yelped with pain and began limping, unable to put any weight on it. Ten minutes later though, she was running about as though nothing had happened. But, late on yesterday afternoon, she began to worry at it and started seriously limping again, so we've managed to get her an appointment with the vet this morning. We've decided to take her back to the practice in Morpeth, because they know her there. Charles has taken both of them. Rose will no doubt be glad of Lily's company. Stupidly, I gave them breakfast this morning. It may well have been better not to because she is so sensitive to it being touched that it may be necessary to sedate her. I HATE it when they are in pain. Ridiculously, I just go to pieces, so I've stayed here and poor old Charles is having to cope with it on his own.
