[QUOTE="Someplacedude, post: 2036911, member: 118645"] Hi Tracie, I took some pictures of her for reference. She can't walk normally, her from arms are kind of stuck bent and curled in. We are doing physical therapy with her, but she won't even be fully normal. She used to barely be able to walk or even lift herself up at all, so at least she's making progress. I gave her some sweet potato with her salad today, she ate a couple bites, but sometimes I think her teeth hurt too much to eat much (?) She is missing a lot of teeth and the remaining ones have periodontal disease, which the vet said not to worry about because it shouldn't progress if we're taking good care of her. Anyway, all that to say I put it in the blender and she was very excited about the sweet potato then. So thanks for that! Gonna try squash next. :) According to the previous owner, she only layed one egg ever, which is better than being prolific. She's older, so I'm hoping her body just doesn't do that ever again lol. Of course I won't overfeed her anyway so hopefully there's nothing to worry about. Vet said in her case, to make sure she doesn't lay, bugs should be 5% of diet with access to higher protein veggies to make up for the difference. She's on cipro and metronidazole for URI and parasites, and meloxicam for pain from the MBD. Could those be affecting her appetite? She has gained appetite since starting them, but it has kind of tanked lately, she's near the end of her treatment though. [/QUOTE]
