I knew *something* was wrong with Elvis the moment things settled down and i got to spend some extra time with him. He walked funny, was very weak in the hind end and loses his footing often. i had one of our volunteers (thank you Steph) take him into the vet tonight. I'm sad to report some not-so-good news. Elvis has a dislocated hip, possibly both of them. He was too painful to take a proper x-ray of both hips tonight so the hospital kept him over night and will put him under to get a good look at both hips tomorrow. The doc isn't sure if he has had an injury or if his problem is due to malnutrition when he was a kit. We'll know tomorrow. Please keep him in your thoughts. Sugar just hasn't flourished as much as the rest of the kids. She has gained weight and been eating well, but she is just not as perky as the rest of them. Steph also took her in tonight and we're a little concerned about cancer with her. The doc took some blood and we should know on Friday what's up with her. Please keep her in your thoughts also.
