Jogging around the block
G'morning, everybody.
Digby is still asleep. I peaked in at her to make sure she was okay, and she was.
Thanks everybody who is praying for her and thinking of her. I appreciate it.
BF, I did notice yesterday that the joint where her foot and leg meet did seem a little swollen in comparison to her other leg. This was new yesterday, though it may have actually started Friday and I didn't notice until yesterday. I will try to get a picture in a little while. She has been getting cayenne daily. I've been putting it on her foot and it's in her food.
I will mention gout to the vet tomorrow, especially since one of them we talked to yesterday said something about a possible mineral deficiency. She can be a picky eater, so a mineral or vitamin deficiency is definitely a possibility. My initial fear from the beginning was that this was just a symptom of another, underlying issue, but when she started to do better and I couldn't find any information to support that, I let it go, thinking she just got hurt somehow.
