I hauled Boomer to the vet today cuz she’s been looking so scrawny and pathetic lately. The vet thinks she probably has a thyroid tumor. She’s lost half of her body weight and is down to 4.6 lbs from 8 lbs 2 years ago. Her hair problems could also be related to the thyroid problem. It also explains why she eats and eats and eats and still loses weight. I’ll get the results of her blood tests tomorrow. I may have to stuff pills down her throat for the rest of her life. But I’ve taken care of her for 17 years, I’m not going to stop now.
