Default IS something wrong?

Marina, Gracie became very sleepy and unlike herself last spring. She wouldn't even chase her ball (her favorite activity) but just laid on the sofa and slept. After a few days I became concerned (even though she was eating fine) and took her to the vet. Turns out her anal glands were full and causing discomfort! I couldn't believe it. The vet hit the nail right on the head. As soon as he expressed them (internal glands--groomers expres the external ones but by law in our state are not allowed to do the internal ones--who knew?), she was immediately back to her old self--even chased a ball around the vet's office.
