You have done all you can do for her....you really have to trust your judgement and try to have some faith. A wise old friend of mine used to tell me to pray for faith to replace my fears....it really works. When I find myself overwhelmed with worry, I do that now. Maybe it will help you.
You are a good mom and Cassie is lucky to have you! |
Thank you for your encouragement and loving support. I really hope you are right.
Today is the first day I am keeping Cassie and Muffin together in the family room. Muffin is excited and is barking and barking at Cassie to play with her. This is not new behavior, she sometimes does this, but Cassie usually ignores her. I kept telling her "uh uh" when she got in Cassie's face and started to bark. I hope this will work. So far I haven't see her jump on top of Cassie, so I'm hanging in there.
At this time Cassie has a runny nose. I think she got this at the groomers because the woman insisted that warm air was no good for them and cool air was best. I'm calling my Vet in the morning to see what she suggests. I think she will tell me to give her colloidal silver and pusitilla, but we will see.
On an up note, Cassie has a great appetite so far and is eating more than she did before, and she is walking on a laminate floor which she never does, and travels down a long hallway to get to me in my room. This takes a great deal of determination, courage and will on her part because it's tricky for her on the laminate floor where she doesn't feel she has a good footing. Muffin has no problem with the floor, but Cassie was always skittish about it, so I see her trying new things and venturing out beyond her ken, so I think she is feeling good and doing okay so far. Here's hoping!
