A visit to an holistic vet!

Really busy today as I had my keep fit class and then had to rush over to pick Les up and take her to the clinic to have her eye checked but we made it in plenty of time and all is well. I then took her to the Red Cross shop as her daughter, Bianca, is the manager and is on holiday and Les is doing the banking while she is away. We went next door for a coffee and then she went to the shop and I went home.

I took Totty to the vet in the afternoon and it was different. We were there for 50 minutes and she only charged us £25! I thought it was going to cost a fortune! She said basically she is fine but suggested a change of diet to stop the anal gland problem and also gave her some herbs to take and for the lesions suggested using warm tea bags on them for as long as she will let me. We will see. I am not convinced by it all and I was glad that Hon was not with me as he would not have been impressed at this lady and how she was.

After taking Totty home I went back to the Red Cross to pick Les up and take her home. she is not allowed to drive and I didn't think she ought to be getting on buses after working all that time. Hopefully she will feel better tomorrow.

I am not convinced, after reading the leaflet, the new diet is good for Totty. It is raw meat, veg and pasta or rice. It is the raw meat and bones that I have a problem with. We'll see I am not going to change her yet as we are off to Fiji at the weekend and she is going into kennels so it would not be a good idea.


WEATHER
A bit of a chill in the air but not too bad so far. Sunny for the rest of the day with some light cloud in the late afternoon.
