Well today we have struggled with bathing and clipping Ania. It is unbelievable that I only clipped her 4 weeks ago and her fur was so long. She hates it, especially her feet. My husband tried to hold her on his lap, no mean feat and her breathing became so bad and she started choking. The days of taking hours to get it to perfection are over. It still took nearly 2 hours with me trying to calm her in between. There was a very little walk this afternoon and she is now actually sleeping very peacefully in the chair with her head up on the arm of the chair which helps her to breathe a lot better.
Tonight Ania will sleep in her woolly coat in case it is as cold as it was last night. Afterwards it always makes Ania feel a lot better. I am gradually making Ania's ears shorter, they were her crowning glory but she does not need all that weight to carry around with her.
Fudge and Abby have been worried but are now relaxing but it will be their turn to be bathed and clipped tomorrow.
