Ripley

Yesterday sure didn't end in a happy note; we had to take Ripley to Whitefish Animal Hospital (they are great!!) because of a distended abdomen and not eating for a couple of days. He ended up being x-rayed, put on IV hydration and stayed overnight. I don't know who it was harder on, us or Ripley!! Today was much better news; he finally "pooped" and also has a kidney infection. He's home now and on antibiotics, and is much happier. SO ARE WE!!! Dave had a busy day at work and attended a 911 meeting in Kalispell. He even had the strength to pick Ripley up at the vets! I had a day off today and spent it enjoying Molly, Stella and Sully! Also was able to get in some visiting time with my mom, so it was a great day for the Sipes.
