Sound Advice?
Thank you all for your positive comments and support! I actually took Sid to a brand vet on Friday and I left with a very good feeling about our visit. The vet said that Sid looked really good, his blood levels were all normal, and also to not worry about the dose of prednisone I have been using to handle Sid’s allergies as it is very low. She does not suspect a dose that low would not have any bad long-term effects, which was a huge relief for me to hear. So Sid’s back on his low dose of pred, he’s been de-coned, and (thank goodness) isn’t scratching his face off anymore.
So, in addition to taking the vet’s advice, I also took the idea that many of you had suggested in the comments and addressed Sid’s baby carrot deficiency with the following:
After the smoke that puffed out from his ears dissipated from the room, I saw the plate – now completely empty – slowly whir to a stop. And then I found Sid passed-out in this position nearby:
It’s not even Thanksgiving yet and he’s already got a case of severe food coma!

Wow Sid, save some room for the turkey!! Glad you are not so itchie, don’t want you scaring that handsome face. In response to your camera focus comment today, Mom and Dad did decide that this year it would be less stressful to do individual pictures, and it was all done and over in no time. HA HA

Has Sid ever tried a pure raw diet? It’s been really good for Bellatrix and her food/allergy issues…
