I just received the results of Roxie's blood work and everything is very well and normal EXCEPT for her cholesterol. It is pretty high and I'm freaking out. I'm pretty sure one of the main culprits is her former owners constant peanut and cheap Walmart seed mix feeding. But I don't have time to place blame, I need to get the cholesterol down to a normal. She currently gets an AM mix of veggies (kale and/or spinach, carrots, squash, sprouts and a fruit, cantaloupe, strawberries, mango) with a few occasional almonds or Brazil nuts. I also give her a bit of egg and understand I have to cut out the yolk completely. I know I have to increase her activity so I'll try to get her out of her cage more (although she's still very skittish towards me). And absolutely no peanuts/ peanut butter! Does anyone have any special tips that you can offer me? I'm headed home to do some serious research..
