Ferris went to the vet's for his checkup and his furcut today. He's very healthy, I am happy to report.
OK, first, here's his picture from last year, Ferris the Lion Pony:
Very cute, but not what he was supposed to look like.
Here's my boy looking more like he's supposed to. She gave him booties instead of fuzzy uggs and a sweater this year, plus she shaved off most of his plume.
I bet it was horrifying her to do that to him, and I'm sorry, but just the thought of it makes me
He's already LOVING to feel me petting him against his skin, and the fur that's left is sooooooooo soft.
And look at that really awesome lion's tail!
He's still a bit drugged out from the meds, but he's getting good with his back legs again (they've been a bit weak - he looked like a drunken bum, earlier, staggering a bit,) so I fed him a little wet. I'll keep the dry up overnight just in case, don't want him getting sick everywhere.
Overall, though, he looks and will feel MUCH better.
Oh - and without that fur, he weighs 13.5 pounds. About the same as Max, and now they look nearly the same size!
