[Gpdd] Health: Spunky is Paralyzed

[Birdie Horn]

Hello fellow slaves,
I am sad to report that just over the 
wheekend my Spunky has become
paralyzed. He was dragging his back
legs on Saturday and by Sunday he 
wasn't moving in his cage at all. He 
would still eat up a storm and didn't 
seem to be in pain. So today I took 
him to the vet. They did an Xray and 
said that he is missing a disk in his
back. The gave him Metacam for the 
pain which I am to give him once a 
day. I take him back tommorow for
a chropritic appointment to see if it 
will help. Has anyone ever heard of 
that? They sugguest neutering but 
because of him age I don't think 
that should be considered. He is 
swollen in his male parts and the 
vet thought they might help. I am 
to going to talk to Steve tonight and
see what he thinks we should do for
him. I do not want Spunky to suffer 
but I don't want to rob him of life
if he is happy and content. It is 
some hard choices to make but 
after tomorrow I will know more. 
Please keep Spunky in your prayers.
