I checked with the Vet about Missy, 12 weeks old, having 7-8 poops a day. He said to give her 1cc Pepto Bismo twice a day for a couple days & that should straighten out her intestines.

I also told Vet Missy has not been eating breakfast for past 3-4 mornings. I asked if this is a sign she doesn't need it & to go to twice a day feedings even only at 12 weeks? He said yes it would be fine as I told him she will eat 1/4 cup Chicken Soup at a time.

Also, took Muffie, 10-1/2 year old, to Vet this morning. We had to schedule her for dental cleaning on 1/30 (really backed up from holidays). During dental cleaning, they'll check her for any loose permanent teeth & pull them then.

He also said we could just mix a little baking soda & salt & rub over their teeth if we don't want to use toothpaste. He said they can swallow it - won't hurt them.

Gee whiz, 4 birds with 1 stone here! haha LOL

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
