Another blood test!

Twice in one week I got my blood tested. Last Saturday I had everything checked by a lab. But Dr. Johnson said my red blood cell count is way low since a month ago so he wanted to recheck my RBC in the office. So I got dropped off for a while this morning. I had a nice time at Arizona Exotic Animal Hospital as everyone is always so nice to me. Even the blood draw is not too bad, but I'm pretty good at all this medical stuff by now.

I didn't produce any "fresh" poop, so they took the tiny sample they found under a newspaper when I was going to bed last night. Hope that was good enough. They said my RBC is still low but better than what the lab reported from last Saturday's test. Could I be anemic? And why such a big change? We'll just wait to hear from Dr. Johnson now. He'll know what to do.



I'm still not eating, but I have been soaking in my little blue pan. And I'm looking forward to another walk in the backyard this evening. I might even munch on a tasty weed or some new globemallow leaves. I like sniffing hibiscus flowers but so far I haven't taken a bite. They had big plans to turn me loose in the backyard this weekend, but for now that celebration is on hold.

And now, it's time for an afternoon siesta after such an eventful morning. In my little yellow box. YAWN. I do need my beauty sleep!
