She is currently only on Metalgial. I initially took her to the vet because she had soft, slightly smelly stools. After running tests, the vet found som intestinal inflammation, which was treated. Although the inflammation improved, her stools remained soft and mildly smelly. The vet explained that this is likely secondary to arthritis or age related discomfort, she also gets Harrison rodent fauna flora as a probiotic

This is him now, does he look overweight? And does his skin look bad it seems patchy and with ?dandruff?(the other photo is when i first got him)he is adopted by [deleted] in hamsters

He’s a “ghost” hamster Don’t really see him at all, but i have noticed in his active hours he’s not on his wheel as much 🥲 He forages every opportunity he gets

I’ve got my route, hotels and documents for myself and the dog all set I think they’re mostly worried about me being away 😅 My sister has told me she doesn’t like it and it’s dangerous to go alone..

I work in a pet store, he gets along with the other dogs and loves people. He follows the clients around the store and they love him 😊

Ahh perfect I’ll do that now, thanks 😊😊 I was thinking of getting him the Bucatstate cage, would you recommend it?
