Cata had a rough year, 14 months of on-off infections, and with that cone of shame. Now 6 months of no cone! Turns out, she's allergic to mites, so started steam cleaning of all fabrics she's in contact with and we keep her food in the freezer, and she's all good. I haven't been this happy and stress free for a year that I am now.

As a bonus, a more uncommon breed for most of the world. She's our little square-shaped, retired hunter. Turned 11 this spring, but you can't really tell, still energetic and playful as ever.

She naps everywhere in the house. Sometimes that place is her kennel.

Just curious what the lemmy hive mind has to say. I recently rescued a 6 mos year old puppy and his nails were trimmed down proper. It’s been 2 weeks now and I can noticeably hear them clanking on the floor but still look pretty darn short to me.

My last dogs I had I didn’t quite keep their nails that short but I probably should have.

Or maybe some idiot tossed his blanket on him. Who's to say in these trying times?!
