Hi everyone,
I collected Lucy yesterday at 4.30pm, she is such a sweetie. She has settled in fine so far, I think Prince is a bit afraid of her, I think that she might be the boss around the house, I really dont want Prince to be put out though, I am paying him extra attention, I think he is hoping its just short term.
I am a bit worried about Lucy, she does this thing like she cant catch her breath (it sounds like a snort, or she is trying to clear something from her throat) Prince has done it once or twice but never as bad as Lucy done it this morning, I was really worried, I thought she was going to choke or something. She also seems to be scratching her ear alot, she done it last night and then this morning she was on her back and with both paws she was rubbing her ears and face vigorously. Maybe I am being a bit over cautious with her because she looks so old, she is only 6ish. She is very very overweight, she will need to be put on the same food as Prince is on to help loose a bit of weight. One other thing, I was told that she is spayed but I had a quick look last night and I couldnt see a scar, would it be a big scar and where exactly on her belly should it be????. Prince is following her around alot sniffing her back side, is this normal for a male to do this alot?
I took some photos last night, I will post them ASAP, I am not very technical, I will have to get the other half to copy them to a disc for me.
