It's An Itis, Not an Oma...YAY!

And WHEW!

Mr. Arthur Itis, to be exact.  Kate is just getting old.  Not getting full of cancer!

We did x-rays.  She actually has little bony protrusions on all of her toes.  Just something to manage.  Anti-inflammatories when it's acting up.  Other than that, just let her get on with her life.

Getting old sucks, but much better than the alternative!

    I concur, getting old sucks. I turn 50 next year. Blech. But you're right, it's better than the alternative! :)

    What a great picture of Kate - her expressions are great. I just got diagnosed today with a mast cell tumor. Getting old does suck.

    Older is better than the alternative. My dog is over 8 year, getting older yet.Recently, my dog just lies in her big dog beds and never moves. I feels worried. While, at least she is in good condition. We enjoy the time together always.

    All the stages of life bring us new joys and new pains. I have found that I have gotten closer and more snuggly with my older animals as they just want to spend time with their humans. I hope the anti-inflammatory meds help! I love your blog, thank you! I featured it in my favorites today at http://adorablechi.blogspot.com/2011/11/top-5-doggie-bloggers.html
