I take it your not feeling any better?

Not really, except the headache pills helped.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

You havent felt good since that tick bite. I think you need a different dr.

Good you got a test, even just to rule it out. I hope you feel better. It sounds very frustrating.

We have had a little excitement around here. There is a tracking project for mtn lions in this county. They trap the cats and put on collars that send out location signals. A six yr old male has a malfunctioning collar and they located him up at my dad's place. The cat (P13) killed a deer in the creek about 50 ft from dad's bedroom! They found the deer and brought out trap, baited it with the rest of the deer carcass, and are hoping P13 will get caught tonight. They couldn't tell if he was still near because the collar quit sending this afternoon. They have cameras on the trap and a sensor that will go off if he trips the door shut. Hoping he gets caught since they might not have another chance to catch him again since they won't be able to find him.
The guy in charge, Quinton, will call be if P13 gets caught and we will go up and watch the collar exchange. Hopefully it will be a reasonable time, like in an hour or 2, but I'm betting on 4am. 50 years we've been here and I've never seen a mtn lion in the wild. I'm not missing this chance!

Here's some info about the program. There is a pic of P13 from a few yes ago.

What kind of appointment?

What kind of appointment?

just hoping to get some advise on her and maybe something for pain. I assume they would want an xray too

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Robert thinks its time for her to be put down. Maybe I think so too. The question about her having joy in her life really got me questioning myself. I think it would be best left up to the vet.
I hope you get to see the ML. I seen one in the driveway next to ours and it was a pretty scary critter.

I think you can give her baby aspirin for pain. I will ask sis tomorrow.
