So we got a surgeon at UC Davis. With all their high end equipment, but now the 2 radiologists are arguing, is it a mass or not. Today my Vet tried to get blood from his tail....a few pictures...

He kept trying to eat the dandelion painted on the wall. Well, it took her about 7 syringes to get blood from his tail. But she was successful, after she stopped breaking the needles.
Looks like my bad tires and I are going to Davis....Is that the same as Going To Graceland???

Wow, he looks like he handles those stairs as if it was a simple ramp. Sure hope all is well with him. That nurse was very brave being on the tail end of a sulcata for that long. Keep us posted, fingers crossed all turns out well.

Poor bob. He was probably trying to figure out why the mean lady in the coat was hurting him. And why in the hell he could not eat that damn dandelion!!!!

The Vet ended up sitting on the ground with that chair pulled between her legs.
Man, you couldn't pay me enough money to put my face and body so close to the end that is erratically pooping or peeing...lol

He did not have any trouble going up. He knew exactly what he was doing. But going down the 7 steps, he started to slide and kind of panicked. So they grabbed him and just held on while he slid down. No more room on my card, so no pix and that's a shame cuz it was really funny. I'll figure out how to delete the pix on card today I hope....That tortoise is more fun than any circus. Even sick. Lord, please forgive me for what I am about to do, thank you Amen...

Hey wait a minute here Jodie! I end up being the punch line to loads of her humor! LOL
Maggie learn how to transfer the photos to your computer first, then delete off the card. You keep the photos and you have an empty card.
