Health update...

A quick update on Rogue's health.

She finished her Lymes medication.  Hurray!

She's gained weight and is probable close to 50 ponds, up from about 46 when we brought her home. She's probably just about to her ideal weight.

Rogue suffered from relentless horseflies while homeless and had about a 1 inch area on each ear that had been bitten raw.  Below you can see a photo from a few posts ago (which was already greatly improved from when she was found) along with one I took last night.  You can still see the spots if you know to look, but most people wouldn't notice them anymore.

The only treatment we used was Neosporen, for about a week.  The shelter had used a dairy skin moisturizer prior to this that also seemed to work (and protect her from more bites when she was outside).

I'd get a better picture right now, but Rogue is busy being a pillow for Grace on her bed :)

The new white tipped ears are actually quite striking
