Sissy has been favoring her front leg for several days. Last night she wouldn't come down the basement stairs and she's not been getting on the couch. This morning she was pretty lethargic, just laying in her bed and not following me around like normal. Matt isn't sure when he's going to be home so I decided we better go to Petsmart to have it looked at. They didn't find anything specific that would be the cause. She does have arthritis in her rear legs and she has a level 2 or 3 heart murmur which could make her lethargic. They have her a shot for pain and a few days of meds. We are going to see her regular vet later this week for a follow up.
The shot seems to made her feel a bit better but she is still not trying to get on the furniture, which is fine as she is supposed to be resting.

How much time to you spend wandering the internet looking for a good deal on pet supplies? No one wants to cut corners on pet care but most of us are cutting back trying to survive our current economic situation. So instead of burning up precious time looking for a great price, check out ShopWiki.com. I’ve blogged about them before and I’m sold on their website.
Just take a quick look at their http://www.shopwiki.com/wiki/Dog+Care”">dog care section or the http://www.shopwiki.com/wiki/Small+Pets”">small pets page to get an idea of just how easy it is to find anything you need. Each section has a buying guide also that you can edit, just like a traditional wiki. I have worked with James (the owner) in the past in the hermit crab section to update the care info. James is very personable and open to ways to improve the shopping experience.
Traditional shopping sites will only show you stores that have paid for placement, and ShopWiki? will give a shopper everything regardless if we can earn anything. It's the most comprehensive shopping site available. For a shopper, this means they can find anything and everything for sale on the web at ShopWiki.com.
