So Traumatic!

Yesterday we took Smoky to the vet to get his dry skin condition checked.  The vet thought it was due to an allergy so Smoky was given a steroid shot.  The effects of the shot should show his skin improving in about 3 – 5 days.  He also lost three pounds, I was concerned about that, but the doctor said he could lose a few more.  He did weigh 16.7 pounds last year, yesterday 13.3.  On the way to the vet’s I held Smoky in my arms.  His little head spun around looking at all the sights.  But on the way home, he huddled on the floor – I thought he was trying to disappear under the dash.  Poor little guy.

In two weeks, we have to bring him back for his regular shots.
